Could be something bizarre like that.
Obvious question: Same OS level on both machines? As this is a new build, did you go get all of the Updates thru to SP 3? Your old machine will probably have them all if it has Automatic Update enabled...
This machine is on Win XP Pro at fixpak3.
The other Machine is a 2002 HP Pavilion with WIn XP Home at Fixpak2.
The FixPaks have been known to break ‘stuff’ and I always ran with minimum updates until on this machine.
The screen drivers added nothing for me.
