Strange goings on with Textpad

When I compile or execute a program in textpad the screen has started going blank for a few seconds before completing either the compile or execution. This has never happened before, and I suppose the end result is fine but I am curious as to why this is happening. Has anybody experienced this and found a way to fix it?

Which version of TextPad are you using....
std.in

I dug into this with a well written compiler. There is a call into a 16-bit single threaded dll that basically needs to be wiped from the slate. I actually had my Win Learning Edition have the native phosphor on my screen showing in the editor - it was done with an inadvertent cls while working fast.
It never fixed. It was still like that when I threw away the compiler.
