When I power up now, more times than not, I end up with a split screen. The right 1/3rd of my display appears on the left side of the screen followed by the left 2/3rd of the display and that is annoying to say the least. Some times this will persist for longer than a day no matter how many times I restart (can only use forced hard S/D) because of my second problem. The display expands such that the bottom part of the screen is out of sight (low) and because of that, I am prevented from using the start menu. And I have no access to the task bar at the bottom. If I minimize anything … I don’t know how to fetch it back easily. This problem started cropping up a couple of months ago but has gotten progressively worse (more often and longer lasting). It is fast enough to play say Bioshock (reasonably well) but not Bioshock2. Any bottom line suggestions … besides the obvious???
