Title: Funny bits on screen
Post by: VenomX on January 23, 2008, 01:10:02 PM: Couldn't think of a more descriptive title. Basically, this happens a LOT on my screen, usually on stuff that moves. No idea why it happens, it just does it occasionally, any solutions to this problem would be appreciated, cheers.

GFX Card problems ?
That would be my guess especially if it does this on stuff that moves. Have ya updated? Also in Control Panel>System>Advanced>Performance, the Settings tab> Visual Settings. How many of the options are checked?

Feron, I reseated the card and it didn't help anything, every time I turn my pc on its getting worse and worse. Sometimes I can barely read stuff because there's stuff all over the screen...
