Windowblinds Causing screen to flicker Black Occasionally

from Stardock Forums

On occasion my screens turn black and then turn back on. They are not going to sleep nor are they loosing connection as they simply blink black and come right back. This didn't happen before I installed WindowBlinds. Is there a fix for this?

Happens to me a lot too, has for a long time, but only it seems in Windows XP 32-bit.  I am not really sure if it is Windowblinds causing the issue though.

It is highly unlikely WindowBlinds will be the root issue here.

It sounds like a video driver issue or a monitor issue.

It also sounds similar to when my video card was failing.

I have windows 7 32bit with the latest drivers I have ran the computer for days with out this occurrence loaded windowblinds and it happens. I uninstall it/ restart and no problems for days. I am quite certain that it has something to do with WB. Perhaps yet another conflict with Display Fusion?

What happens when you run WindowBlinds and not DF?
