Before changing any screen properties, try a _screen.hide. Do your dirty work :-) and then put a _screen.show before DO mainmenu.MPR.

Alternately, place a _screen.lockscreen = .T. before and _screen changes and _screen.lockscreen = .F. after them. This will batch up the changes and avoid a flicker.
