    , sometimes my programs/windows just don't fully draw or fill in.
    Doesn't seem to matter if on Intel or ATI. For instance core temp
    draws the box and values, but not the other words. Or a stock program
    that draws a lot of boxes and numbers sometimes doesn't draw them.
    IF you move a box and paint it all over the screen, then you get some of
    the information from the other boxes, but not everything. This is real weird,
    I have had a million computers and laptops and never saw this. I have seen slow drawing of boxes due to high cpu, low mem, or heavy disk use, but eventually everything gets drawn. With this laptop, it is fast, but stuff just doesn't always get drawn????
