    Hi, I am experiencing a strange issue with my lock screen. Whenever the lock screen is displayed, it will briefly display a different lock screen (that I didn't pick) before flashing to the lock screen that I actually picked. Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?

    If I understand correctly, I've seen this in XP, Vista, and occasionally in 7. It's fairly normal and doesn't denote something is wrong, but I'm not sure what causes the hiccup. What system do you have?
