Glitches on taskbar?!

Hi
Just noticed that whilst browsing the web im getting wierd glitches all across the taskbar. When i hover over them with the mouse they bugger off. Mostly happens around the time and date area where core temp runs.

Had a quick look around the forums but didn't come across anything to help. So do you guys rekon i should just re-install my GPU drivers (running 266.58) to sort it out?

Thanks

 

Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity in Alien Touch?

 

aha, and i thought i was alone there.

it's the graphic's driver problem. you need to reinstall your driver. well that's what i do when this happens.

 

what kind of glitches? what do they look like?

 

they just look distorted. Like a black matrix code over icons that flicker all the time untill i move my mouse over them! Wierd. Im going to re-install grpahic drivers inabit. Cheers lads

 

just re-installed graphics driver. All seems well for now. Will see if it happens later on.

 

still happening. Even after a re-install of drivers.
Might try a different driver. It's never always been this way.
Oh well...

 

try installing a previous version of the drivers.

If it works, you might have to stick to those until a new version comes out.

How is your GPU handling games?

 

This happened when I was using non Dell drivers. Did you get yours from Laptopvideo2go? Use Dell's official driver's, you'll see a lot less hassle. Ever since I went back to official drivers I haven't had this problem. Hope this helps

 

I see this happen once in a blue moon, I've seen it happen on several different machines.

It's a bug that I can live with, since it happens so rarely to me, but if it were to happen once a day I'd start getting annoyed.

I suggest doing a system restore to a time when you know it didn't happen, see if you can get rid of it that way.

System restore is often overlooked to resolve issues like these.......

 

ah good ol'system restore lol
Didn't think of that. Off to work, so i'll try in the morning.
Cheers.
