Login and subsequent screens are all normal. All operations, utilities and apps function normal.

unfortunately, the fix only resolved the issue for that session. Subsequent starts and the issue returns.
I presume you tried all the suggestions in that Seven Forums link that I posted in Post#3.
Also are you able to run on the motherboard Graphics Driver, rather than any added Graphics Hardware. You would need to uninstall the added Graphics Driver & remove the Graphics card, then connect the monitor to the Monitor connection on the motherboard.
i believe i do not have 'added graphics hardware'. i am no s/w-h/w-computer geek. this pc is strictly stock, no frills/add-ons. therefore, my understanding of my specs tell me that my 'graphics' are on a printed circuit (mother?) board in the computer. i open it occasionally to blow out the dust and do not recall seeing more than one circuit board in there.
One thing I've found is the connection type can make a difference.
I've got multiple connections from a PC to a monitor, i have HDMI and VGA connected right now.
Depending which connection I'm using, it can display differently during boot-up.
To try this you would need another connection type on the PC and the monitor.
Then you would need to add the cable type to use that connection.
