Screen blanks out when after logging to windows XP

[domai]

Hi All,
I recently purchased T-60 (wide screen)...The problem I have is when I enter the userid/password and logon to windows the screen blanks out for like 3-5 sec. I am pretty sure that its the display driver. Called Support but they make me run through hoops - update the driver, roll back the driver blah blah blah..

The driver is Mobile Intel 945GM - version 6.14.10.4648. This came pre installed with the laptop. Any body else have similar issue?

Thank you for your time in advance.
