This is probably suited for Todd but if anyone else has experienced this, I appreciate the help.  I keep getting what I've been referring to as an epileptic fit with AE.  That seems the best way to describe it.  Every once in a while (too often) it just starts this spasming and flickering where I see all of the other windows showing through as it flickers.  I've never lost anything due to this but it goes for like a full minute or more sometimes before it stops.

Any thoughts on what could cause this?  I purge my memory probably way more than necessary, thinking that might help but it doesn't.

I'm running windows 8 and it's done it quite a bit and more so since the recent update to 8.1.

Any settings or anything that could cause this?

Thanks,

Eric
