Give Me Free Tech Support (Or Kill Me)

After I installed the Canon Powershot software on my Windows 2000 machine, I've been getting a weird problem on my flat-panel monitor. Certain shades of light gray are showing up a shimmering magenta-pink. The effect is invisible or all-but on most applications, but does bizarre things to many photographs.

I've downloaded updated drivers for my videocard and motherboard, and all the Windows auto-updates, and rebooted until my boots were worn through, with no effect.

Anyone seen something like this happen before?

My comments form now uses Markdown formatting syntax EXCLUSIVELY. If you use HTML in your comments (or indeed <pointy brackets> for any reason at all) you will be assumed to be a spambot, and your entire comment will be consigned to the Great Howling Internet Void. If you want to get fancy, have a look at the cheatsheet or the full description. Otherwise just type away.
