uninstall all the video drivers, and redownload the latest one and install em.

that should fix it.
I had similar problem with my LCD. Did exactly that and the problem went away.

so here is what i have discovered, if i uninstall my ti4200 (through my computer, not take it out) and then boot into windows normal. i get an image until windows discovers my ti 4200 and installs its drivers for it. at that oint my screen goes blank.

Do not let Windows XP auto-install the drivers for it then. Cancel and install your own drivers.

don't format to install a new copy of windows. i never do. lose too much crap. you can just delete the old windows directory anyway
