Hi - I am running XP and all of a sudden the entire screen went fuzzy - almost like it is in safe mode but with color... I checked my connections, my desktop settings, etc... we were burning a DVD at the time and it appeared it just stopped so I restarted but when it came back up, everything is fuzzy. I checked device manager too - no probs.

Thanks for any help :)
