    Hi recently after putting on RightMark Memory Analyzer (RMMA). (I was trying to reduce mem timings to what others had posted (4-2-2-4).)

    I have been seeing a back screen start up after the rest of the programs... I have no idea what it is or where it has come from.. I deleted / uninstalled the program and the black screen is still there... I have checked services and msconfig... nothing out of place... maybe registry but i have no idea where it would have put the file... I would really appreciate any assistance. I would really like to avoid formating if I could... but that seems like the only recouse as I have NO idea what could be causing this... its definately not hardware though as far as I can tell as it starts up fine and then goes through this black screen thing and then goes back to normal... anyway its REALLY annoying...

    Any help would be great... any others with similar experiance??? I doubt it... this sounds fairly random...
