You have not described what your problem is.
What happens after this "box" appears and disappears?- This is obviously being launched upon startup of the computer so there is a program that has registered itself or some component of it that it launches when the computer reboots
First you can check under the start menu-->programs-->Startup
If there is an unwanted item there then just right click and delete the item and it will be gone
Editiing the Registry
PERFORM THIS TASK AT YOUR OWN RISK AND BE VERY VERY CAREFUL
MICROSOFT SUGGESTS BACKING UP YOUR REGISTRY BEFORE GETTING INTO IT, SO IF YOU MESS UP DONT COME BACK AT ME.
Goto Start-->Run-->Type "regedit"
This will bring up your registry
Here is the navigation path
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Any entry that is being loaded from yor systemroot (ie C:\winnt or c:\windows) or C:\Program Files\Common Files
leave untouched and there might be others that are system related
Delete the appripriate entr(y/ies) and that will take care of the problem

nothing seems to happen but I have noticed my puter is slow now......ok can ya explain (in detail) how I do the back up thing?I also want to know why when I shut my puter off and turn it on later like a few hrs later why I have to adjust my screen everytime?it's only the H sizing but its a pain everytime I leave my puter off I have to adjust it before moving on!- Here is the Direct URL from Microsoft
This is for Windows 2000 so you can easily find it out for XP which is not different

About your Screen being messed up all the time its because that monitor cannot take that resolution and is unable to properly configure the specified resolution when rebooted.
This is all that will work
SET A = RESOLUTIONS x REFRESH RATES SUPPORT BY MONITOR
SET B = RESOLUTIONS x REFRESH RATES SUPPORTED BY YOUR VIDEO CARD
YOUR CHOICES = (SET A) INTERSECTION (SET B)

it could be just the windows command logging you in.. they do pop up real quick when logging in... sometimes you don't realize that it did half the time....or it could also be the antivirus splash screen as well... i dont' think you have anything to worry about, unless you've notice some performance decrease since it had done this, or strange activity on the computer....
