    Angry BLACK SCREEN

    here's the problem..

    i clicked on the link in the follow up to my post. as soon as i clicked on it, windrivers page started to load then i got a blank screen with a blue line approx 1 inch from the top. my machine was locked up! does anyone have a solution on how to fix it or even tell me what is going wrong?
