Thank you for the replies. pcb98, you were correct on the driver issue, redownloaded an older version last nite and have yet to have any problems.
(I was having another issue last nite ((figured out what it was though)) came here, started searching through this thread again, on one of the middle pages -page 6 or so, I came upon someone who had the same graphic drivers issues, and someone replied with a solution. Dunno how I missed it, Boy do I feel dumb now

Anyways, thanks again!)
