I would make sure his PC has the latest video/graphic card drivers installed. Beyond that
look at the "Event Log" on his machine to see if there are any messages of interest.

Go to "Start | Hep and Support" and search for "event log"...

I don't use AOL, or know anyone that does, so I can't say if that could be an issue or
not.
