Does this sound like a hardware problem (i.e. a new monitor needed)? Or software problem (have run Malware Anti-Malware and Avast no viruses)?

Have you tried another screen/monitor.Monitor didn't start "acting up" until 3-4 weeks after PSU was replaced (monitor has it's own power supply)
This was fine in the past but as times have changed software and video demands require more resources be available, as your computer is using a video chip that is integrated into the MB it relies on the system memory for support so if you do not have sufficient Ram the all round performance of the computer will suffer, this can result in freezing, poor graphics quality and slow access times to programs and data on the HDD.Have standard video card (Intel I think) - has not been changed since PC purchased (2.5 years).
Please do not rule out a replacement PSU as the cause!PSU issue resolved - didn't seem to be related to monitor.
