Thanks for the info. I took the video card out and reinstalled it, 
jiggling it sufficiently. That seem to have fixed it. So, I am not going 
to jinx it with changing driver until I am sure the issue is gone. After 
that I will update the driver with the above one as I am interested in 
having mainstream driver to minimize any compatibility issues.
