Just signed up! Love this website.
Okay so here's the problem.

I wanted to build a HTPC so I got together some parts and quickly assembled a PC. For the CPU, I chose the 6800k APU from AMD.
I got everything up and running, but something weird kept happening when I downloaded the drivers for the APU.

It's kind of hard to explain but what happens is whenever a window or a game comes onto the desktop, the text or whatever is being displayed becomes stretched and distorted and it keeps stuttering. I've called up AMD Support and they said its either a conflict between the MB Bios and the APU or it's just a faulty part.

I've updated everything I could find (except the APU of course) so I highly doubt it is a problem with any of the other hardware and the problem doesn't occur when I don't do anything on the desktop.

Thanks for the help!

SPECS:
MB - MSI FM2-A75IA-E53
CPU/GPU - AMD 6800k
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB
PSU - Cooler Master ???
Storage - Samsung EVO 120GB & WD Blue 750GB


 
Now when you say window comes onto the desktop, what do you mean? A windowed game, or any window? Could you post a screenshot.

As for game, I could see it if the in-game resolution wasn't set to 1920X1080.

Sorry I didn't answer this sooner. I work in Yemen, live in Canada, and I was travelling home Tuesday, Wednesday. Long trip, but not too jet lagged this time.

Hey techgeek!
Unfortunately, using screen capturing software does not show the glitch so I can't actually show you what's happening unless I can record it old fashion "take a video of the monitor" style.
I could do that...?
