Screen bounce

Has anyone had a problem with their screen bouncing in VW? When I have more than one file open and toggle between the two from the pull down menu, the screen will bounce vertically a few times then stop. It is terribly annoying. This bounce does not happen in any other application.

I have had my computer company recently replace the hard drive, video card, mother board and RAM in an effort to fix this with no success. I also updated the video card driver recently too. This bounce occurred in VW2010 and 2011

I have a Dell T3500 Intel Xeon 2.40 Ghz, 4GB RAM with an NVIDIA Quadro FX 580 graphics card.

Anybody help?

Thanks

OK, no response so far. Let me add what else I have done in this regards.

It seems related to the problem of using a monitor in its native resolution. The text size is way too small. So I changed it to 125% to see it without a telescope. That seems to be the cause or contributing to the cause. Does anyone know any other way to make the text size readable without going into Windows Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Display and changing the font size to something other than 100%? I tried a solution I found online where I changed something in the registry keys. It seems to fix the bounce, but not the black screen flash. Also, VW doesn't seem fast either...that's another conversation...
