Windows XP Display Settings Tab Makes Computer Reboot...

I wanted to change the display settings on a fellow employee's computer and when I click the Settings Tab under display properties, it reboots the computer (as soon as I click it). Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance!!

I was just doing that right before you replied (but I do appreciate that though). I download the latest video drivers and uninstalled the old ones and reinstalled the new ones, it works perfectly fine!! Thanks!!
