    What is your Vista score? Maybe you could try to refresh it...

    Go to Display Settings and change Colors to Highest (32 bit). Hope this can help you.

    I also don't know what or who changed it (maybe God :D). But since the first day I used Vista, this problem really made me crazy. Now, it made another person, poor Vista. On my desktop, this seem to happen each time I install/ reinstall/ update a display driver (some driver cause this, some not). And on my new laptop, this happen when I switch from some mode to Battery Saver and then switch back.
