I can confirm this is also a problem on windows NT SP6a with the latest patched version of IE. On this machine no scrolling is needed it simply locks up the screen and the BIOS emitts an angry beep, A hard power cycle is needed to get going again. Upon restart windows throws me into VGA mode and brings up a dialog indicating an invalid screen resolution was choosen.
