Hi Marc,

Not at the moment, but I do have a few questions.  What type of
video card/chipset?  What type video, PCI or AGP?  Has this happened
with non-SNAP drivers?  Does this happen with only one particular
program or with all programs?

I have been running SNAP and other Scitech drivers for years without
that difficulty.  I had a problem with previous video cards where they
would lose video leaving me with broad vertical bars and only a reboot
would fix it, but my current video card (generic AGP GeForce 2 MX) has
fixed that. Video has been as solid as a rock since I installed it.
