If you upgraded to Me then you might also need to download a new graphics driver from matrox. I upgraded to 2000 from ME and i encountered the same problem. All i had to do was download the graphics driver for my operating system based on my computer's graphic card model or something. Someone else could give you some more clear information about this...
