ok, heres my problem. lately, all of a sudden, ill minimize a window or open up media player for a movie clip and then my resolution goes haywire. i go from seeing my whole screen and then, to best describe what happens, its as if someone zooms in on the middle of my screen and the only way i can get back to my normal screen is to reboot my computer. my computer is virus free and spyware free. i dont know if it is coincidence or not, but this seems to happen mostly when im running limewire. any ideas as to what is wrong? my video card is a nvidia 6800gt, i have 2 gigs of ram, p4 processor, etc. so i doubt its a lack of processing power. any help would be appreciated. thanks

Which Nvidia driver set are you using? Have you updated them lately? You might need to go to Right click on your desktop, choose properties, then Settings, then hit the advanced button. Then click on the Monitor tab to see if you have Refresh rate that may be too high for your monitor.
