    Im having a problem with my new Asus. Ive got Vista Home Premium 32-bit installed. Whats happening is that things like icons and especially menu items from File, Edit, Right Click, etc, are being overlayed on my screen and they dont go away until I restart or change resolution settings. Infact as I type this Im looking at a big fat "Always on top" box stuck to the middle of my screen.

    Any ideas why this is happening? Its not life threatening but its getting irritating.

    Have you updated your video card drivers? More importantly, what video card are you using so that we may point you in the correct direction.
