BTW, if someone has answered this already, I was not able to check - the "search for similar topic" doesnt work it gives me the same 4-5 links no matter what the title is

Thanx in advance

As i see, it is an error with the X-Windows system.
Try to reinstall the accelerated video driver and setup the video mode again.

There are new nVidia drivers this month. Upgrade them and reconfigure X to make sure it is using them and OpenGL.
