a while ago i noticed my screen kept going black then turning back on again. i thought it was nothing untill yesterday it did it again and my colours on my screen skrewed up. its only a few things that are affexted by it though, such as emules navigation bar, msn messenger icon and winamp icon. I reinstalled my driver and it did nothing i havent changed any thing at all i let my friend controll the pc from his house through netmeeting but im total sure he didnt do anything to that. Has anyone else had this problem, cos my friend did a while back and i had to format his pc...and i have too much on this pc to back up so i can format.

heres a snapshot

im not totaly sure if youll see what im seeing it may be a virus who knows
 
Hard to tell from that screenshot but it looks like your display settings might have been reduced to 256 colors. Check your display settings and if neccesary set to High Color(16bit).
