Graphics problem
In all the years of using and repairing computers I have never seen this happen before.
Whole PC is 7months old built from scratch. This started I thought after a Firefox update changed with another now its effecting other programs also. Various updates of the Graphics card have also changed it.
I have just emailed my supplier of parts a long term dealer for me and great techies.
As I scroll it changes two photos via camera and a screen capture.
If anyone has a fix or knows of one

Thanks Joez just changed that will see if it works.
Not sure how that is going to stop it happening in other programs tho.

Dodgy video RAM (or implementation of RAM) ?
Appeared after video driver update, can you rollback the driver updates ?

First one is my thoughts or over heating of card fan is working and even in there its cold as MiL breath. Possibly the ram as card is 7 mths old replacement is an option via dealer.
No appeared just prior an update and there has been a few since still a possibility if MS is involved also along with FFox and Catylist

Looks like a video ram fault to me.

If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

Joez so far so good didn't require a restart etc and its been running since I made the change.
As its to damn cold for shed today I' sorting out 2 PC's problems.
I'd say the Blueray player DVD burn on this has died no show anywhere in BIOS a re-install for drivers
The other PC seems a faulty set of 2x500meg ram is culprit now to hook everything else back up.
