I have a service call in to Matrox, but so far all they have suggested is to update the card bios and driver, which I have done, to no good effect. In fact, the damned thing is worse with the new drivers and firmware than the old.
Thanks William Robb ============== William, there is practically no way to tell what it might be, not without knowing more. You describe a myriad of problems. This means it may be more than one thing. You might check your peripherals though (scanners, printers, etc.). Like try booting the computer with absolutely nothing attached and see if that makes a difference. One time I had a problem with an out of date scanner driver. But you could also have some background process running (in memory all the time) that is causing problems. Your best bet, really, is finding some kind of computer consultant to come to your home. Although, I have to admit, part of it might be Direct X. I've had it mess up things on a previous computer. You could have an older and a new version installed. I'd probably start there if I was checking it out (as in removing it to see if it's the problem, but make sure you can reinstall it, first). Good luck.
