We've probably all experienced it before at one time or another... You're working with a program, then maybe you close or minimize the window, but some small portion of that program's window remains on the screen. It doesn't go away until you "scrub" it by moving something else over that area.

Is there a name for this? I've been getting this a lot since I started using Win7x64. My first thought would be video drivers, but I'm using the latest ones for the nvidia 460. Also using the first/only drivers for my monitor (Dell 2209WA). Normally these window artifacts don't bother me but they never happened this often before, and now I am starting to get slightly annoyed. Are there any tricks avoid these things from coming up?

Pretty new build.

Win7 64-bit, Home Prem (was a clean install)
Core i5 2500K (no OC yet)
GeForce GTX 460 1GB
Dell 2209WA Monitor (1680x1050, 32-bit color)
Mushkin 4GB DDR3 1600
ASRock P67 Pro 3 Mobo
Samsung Spinpoint F3 500 HDD
Antec Neo ECO 520c PSU

Edit: I experience this most often with Firefox, but that may be because I use the program the most.

Make sure the video cable is secured on both ends.

Try a different video cable.

Could be video card going bad.
