This is most likely due to outdated graphics card drivers. Try updating :)

Yep, search on the website of your graphic card vendor the latest driver for your graphic card.

Well, you could try another drivers, even if they aren\'t the newest.

Normally those newest drivers only affect substantially new cards, so, if yours isn\'t that new, perhaps an older driver fits better with your graphics card.

Did you try with an older version of your graphics card driver?
