Hi, guys. What's up? Gotta little problem here...about 40% of the time that I play Limewire-downloaded MPEGs/AVIs (using Winamp, Nero Show Time or Power DVD), the computer screen suddenly looks like a "cracked mirror." I mean, I get diagonal, red lines running across the screen. Sometimes, the MPEG continues to play. If the MPEG actually stops playing, then I get a blue screen of death with those "cracked mirror" lines running across it. In either scenario, I am unable to CTRL ALT DELETE to task manager; my mouse disappears, too. I have to do a hard reboot.

Any idea what's going on here? Note: I am an AVG-aholic and run it on a daily basis. I have no viruses on my system.
