Wierd artifact around the mouse cursor when moving around internet links (firefox and IE)
Hi

I have weird artifacts (black lines) around my cursor when I move It quickly over links on google or other sites.

I found someone who had the exact same issue on Youtube:

I just updated my graphic driver (Catalyst 14.4 to 14.9) and it didn't resolve the issue.
I also disabled hardware acceleration and cursor shadow with no effect.
I can't be PSU related since I replaced it and got the same results
This is a fresh install of windows 7 (just a week ago)

I noticed that i didn't get this when my GPU drivers where uninstalled.

If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know!!

I think it might be my memory thats failling but I dont get this on games and if I downclock the memory and core I still get this.


Specs:
AMD FX-8350,
Sapphire Radeon R9 280x VaporX TriX,
GSkill Sniper 2 x 8 GB
Samsung SSD 840 PRO 256 GB.

Update: If I change the cursor color to black I don't get the artifacts anymore, but I still want to understand why it does that.

I just changed my GPU only to get the same effect.

This is really annoying
