Thanks for the response.
Systems specification listed below. Yes, my laptop has Intel and Nvidia graphics, and I'm puzzled how that works. Also I found that I see the video in full screen mode, but not in the little edit screen. And... last week I upgraded the Intel graphics driver and PS25 worked. I rejoiced and even started editing a movie. Then Boom the problem retuned! I find this behavior very strange. If I had a hardware or driver problem then PS25 should work or not work period. But instead it seem to work for a while, then stop.
Thanks again for any suggestions.

BTW, I've been using Studio since the year 2000 (Studio DV) and dealt with my share of issues. But this problem really has me stumped.
