Marc LeBlanc Posted Tuesday at 01:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:01 PM I tried finding something on this but couldn't. I'm getting this weird graphic glitch either on startup or when opening certain windows or side panels. It's hard to explain so I attached a screenshot. Anyone with info on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jagg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Promidi Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:40 PM Can it be assumed that you have already tried uninstalling, download the latest, and reinstalling your graphic drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted yesterday at 01:04 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:04 AM Maybe it's custom themeing from within by AI. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had already uninstalled and downloaded the latest. I tried updating the graphic drivers and it's good so far. I'll have to wait and see as the issue is intermittent. Thanks!

Colin Nicholls Posted yesterday at 03:06 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:06 PM That looks like a bad memory chip doesn't it, or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amberwolf Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago (edited) FWIW, I sometimes see a similar type of patterned interference occasionally on my laptop. On mine it will be a single square of the pattern, somwehre random on the display area, or a set of such squares. Just enough "noise" to make that area unreadable/unviewable. Originally I thought it was the graphics card or driver; it happened both on the built in LCD and on an external monitor connected to either the VGA or HDMI ports...but when those connectors began to fail and to be able to see anything (why I have the external 32" / 42" monitors) I had to use an external USB video card (Targus Displaylink, and a different brand DL before it with different drivers). The problem persists with all of them, and even with differnet monitors. And it happens in almost software, but most commonly with things that display pages of text (book readers, notepad, browsers, etc). The only two things I don't think I've ever seen it in were SONAR and Notepad2. I've never found any replication recipe for it, no specific environmental condition, etc. No specific software; the only common hardware is the laptop mainboard, PSU, as even the ram has been changed out when I removed boht originals to max it out at some point. So....while I don't have a solution to the OP's issue, I will sympathize with them....it's pretty annoying when youc an't see / read things because of such a thing happening.
