I have an MSI ti4200, brand new replacement from RMA. It seems to have a
habit of causing the screen to go black for a second during normal
operations. It doesn't interrupt any typing that is being done, it just
blacks out for a bit. I have seen this problem with both 45.23 and 56.72
drivers. The black out also happens when I click the task bar icon which
controls the programming of the card. It doesn't happen during gaming, which
is nice, UT2004 looks awesome

Just wondering if this is something anyone in here has seen with their card.

I've found several drivers have a habit of doing that. Going back to older ones
solved it for me (e.g. 30.82), but of course some newer games may not work with
them.

Try to use different refresh rate and different bits of color.
