Hi all.

I have a Dell PII 350 with 128 MB RAM, Diamond Viper v550 AGP video card, Turtle Beach Montego sound card, Toshiba DVD drive, and an HP cd writer. The Viper card is using the latest detonator drivers. The system came with Windows 95, but I did a fresh install of Windows 98 and installed the Service Pack 1 from Microsoft.
Here's my problem: after installing IE 5.0, I noticed that after launching IE 5.0, the location bar, the start menu, and the shortcut icons next to the start menu start to blink rapidly. It gets to the point where I can't access any of the submenus in the Start menu. Plus, it's rather annoying. It's almost as if the screen keeps trying to refresh- but only in those areas. Also, the start menu and the shorcut icons blink in MS Word as well as Quicken. Also, the blinking is intermittent, but happens frequently. I'm thinking that it might be somehow related to the operating system, but I'm not really sure.
Netscape works fine, games work fine (half-life, mechwarrior 3, etc.), and other programs I've tried (Eudora) work fine as well.

Does anybody have any ideas as to what may be going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
