when i do a print preview in a program, it seems as though there is nothing there, but if i move the window around i can see the information but it kinda just flickers, then when i stop moving the window it disappears again. I had a similar problem on a different computer when i would look at solid works drawings, many of the lines would disappear.

my questions is:
a) how do i fix this? i've already installed the latest drivers, so thats not the problem.

b) what exactly is the problem? i know there are like different types of outputs (write combining? overlaying?) i dont even know the words, but can someone explain anything about this?

thanks alot
