Default continual flashing or video resetting in outlook

I have a problem with my outlook "flickering". It is almost like blinking in
that you see the screen for a second and then it goes black and then back and
forth. This mainly happens only when viewing my email, meaning I can use my
calendar, etc without this problem. It is not specific to one file box or
another in the email setting. It happens in all the different boxes. I can
double click on the email and open it and that circumvents the flickering,
however as soon as I return to the preview pane, the flickering starts in
again.

Initially I had thought it was my monitor going out, but once I realized the
incident was only related to outlook, that eliminated that. I have tried the
"fix" feature from microsoft (can't remember if it is in the help section or
on the website or on the disk) with no success. I have uninstalled office
and reinstalled it with no success. I have run numerous virus scans, etc
with no luck either. I really am at a loss as to why this happens. I am
current on all of my XP and Office Pro downloads including all the service
packs.

Please, someone help me!! I have gotten to the point that I almost prefer
to go to my email provider's website to check my email than use outlook.
Thanks in advance for ANY suggestions or ideas you may have to offer.
