I have tried some different drivers, but I refuse to believe that is the problem, since it both happens with 13.12 and 14.4 (and even the newer beta versions 14.7).
When:
It all started after I upgraded my graphics card. Before that I have never seen this happen. In between the upgrade I have re-installed Windows to ensure there were no old driver leftovers.
My system:
Feel free to ask me, if I need to supply you with some additional information.
I'd be very happy if you could give me a bit of help.
