no need to be appologetic about asking a question. people that give you a hard time about a question usually don't know the answer.

having said that, I don't know the answer either. never heard of this. didn't find it in vol 2 - maybe icarus can enlighten us.

did it do it on your screen only or CA too?
did you try
1. turn xpdr off (not stby - OFF) for a few minutes, then test again.
2. EICAS test (press and hold the RA/TST button)
3. asking MX
4. letting the CA know so s/he can write it up. it's a failed test.

a ctrl-alt-delete usually works for almost anything, but it hides the problem. if everyone did that, it wouldn't be in any logbook, mx would never know, and it would never get fixed. if you let mx know they'll probably just tell you to do a reset anyway... but they'll have a record of it and will be able to see a trend if you're not the only one.

just remember - there are no dumb questions - only dumb people
