Re: Screen refresh problem with Millenium

[Howard Pasternack <Howard_Pasternack@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We had problems with Millennium screens and screen refreshes on our 
Dells.  (Blobs of square blank data on the screen). Try changing the 
hardware acceleration settings of the monitor and change it to something 
else from whatever it is.  (Right click desktop, 
Properties/Settings/Advanced) and find the hardware acceleration 
tab.  There is a faq on CSdirect about this. We had various machines with 
problems and there was no consistency on which setting was best for which 
machine.  -- Howard
