Hello Norm

This is Romeet, id like to try and help with this. Sounds a lot likely to be either Display Driver problem, System Memory or VGA Memory Problem. However we shall try and use the easiest ( Cost Friendly ) method first lols..

Start your Laptop in Safe Mode.

Right Click your " My Computer " icon and select properties.

Go to Display Adapters / VGA Controllers and right click your display adapter and restart your laptop.

WIndows should be able to pick your display drivers again on rebooting and let me know if this solves the problem

All the Best!
