Nothing but blank windows...

Hello. I'm having two issues with Java, and I'm hoping somebody can help me,
because Sun's site wasn't terribly useful.

1) Often, when I open a page that has an applet in it, or open an
application that involves Java, my screen blacks out. The screen stays that
way until I click on something like a window and drag it around; wherever I
drag the window and set it down, the screen reappears in that area, so
basically I have to move it all around so that I can see everything again.

2) A more important issue is that the Java Console and any popup windows
associated with Java-based programs are blank. In other words, the window
pops up just fine, but there's nothing visible on it. However, by clicking
in the area where the OK and Cancel buttons usually are, I can get the
dialog to close -- so there's stuff on the windows, I just can't see any of
it.

Any suggestions? I've downloaded and installed the latest JRE a few times,
to no avail.

Here are my system specs:

Windows XP, SP2
Latest version of Internet Explorer
Latest version of the JRE
Two large-screen LCD monitors

Thanks for any help,
Mike
