I considered doing that...but if the problem now happens even if I haven't launched Photoshop, or any other CS app, it seemed unlikely to me that launching Photoshop just to change the OpenGL settings would make a difference. Wouldn't Photoshop's particular interaction with the graphics card only occur when Photoshop is running?

Plus my card is specifically listed by Adobe as being fully compatible with graphics acceleration, OpenGL.

It would be much simpler if the problem only happened while Photoshop was running...but it happens even if it isn't.

Perhaps CS4 runs something on startup that might be causing trouble for the graphics card, even if none of its apps are used? Is it possible that software (Photoshop, or some other CS4 app) could have done something to "break" hardware, like my graphics card? Seems unlikely, but it's hard to believe that my graphics card just happened to go insane just at the moment I installed CS4...
