    An upgrade in itself can cause a big problem. My suggestion was a fresh install.

    Okay, guess I have to wipe the drive to do that right? Only asking bc all my media (music, movies, photos, etc.) are on the drive as well (for now).

    Well, I went ahead with the upgrade before I read your last post and now I have a new problem--the screen flickers every 2 seconds...having trouble figuring out what to do about THAT now...

    If you do a live boot you can get access to your personal files for backing up.
    After that install 16.04.
