Hey all

Having some issues on a jaunty install, after I login for the first time, the top and bottom bars appear, then flick on and off every second or so constantly. If i click on something that brings up a menu, I dont have time to click anything

If i click and drag a box on the desktop that remains as normal (no flickering), as does the right click context menu.

Have been using Ubuntu since edgy on various machines, this machine and its exact hardware setup since gutsy.

edit: also am using 64bit for the first time. I am running an intel core2 quad cpu, 2gb RAM, nvidia 8800gtx
any ideas as this is doing my head in and i cant find anyone else with this issue.
