Windows 7 - Minor issue I have |

Minor issue I have When moving windows around they turn invisible except for the edges, is there any way to make the windows stay visible when moving them? Maybe this pictures will clarify my issue.
I'm trying to move it left here; see how it turns transparent?
Now I'm moving it right and it does the same thing. Sure it might be a small annoyance but I don't like it.
Okay here is how it looks when moving windows in vista in vista:
Moving the window right
Moving the windows left. In vista the window stay fully visible when moving it and only recently the windows in 7 have turned invisible when moving them. So can anyone tell me how to keep the windows from turning transparent when you move them? | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit CPU Phenom II x4 955 Motherboard ASUS M4A79XTD EVO Memory 4GB G-Skill DDR3 1600 Graphics Card XFX HD5770 1GB and XFX 9600GT for Physx Sound Card Integrated Monitor(s) Displays HYUNDAI X224W Black 22" Screen Resolution 1680x1050 Keyboard Microsoft Digital Media Pro Mouse Razer Habu PSU OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W Case NZXT M59 case with 2 extra 120mm Blue LED Fans Cooling Cooler Master Hyper 212+ Hard Drives Samsung F3 1TB |

You have to disable transparency in the personalize options by going into the colors section and unchecking the enable transparency box seen there. I've seen some ghosting here with the 32bit 7 but not anything quite to that degree. But that would be the first thing to consider. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64, XP Mode(VPC and VMLite), VM Player 4.02, W8 CPreview CPU AMD Phenom II X4 Deneb 3.4 Motherboard Gigabyte GA-790XTA-UD4 Memory Kingston Hyper X DDR3 1600 8gb 1.5v Graphics Card MSI Radeon 5750 1gb Sound Card Creative Labs X-Fi XtremeGamer Monitor(s) Displays 2 x Acer P191W 19" widesscreen Screen Resolution 1440x900 native Keyboard Microsoft Recusa Razor Mouse MS Trackball Explorer PSU Corsair 750TX Case Antec 900-2 - SSD compatible Cooling Zalman CNPS9900A Hard Drives WD Black Edition 1tb Sata 6.0 = 2

Hello TheDuckGuy,
If you go into performance options, (type performance options in the start bar), you should have an option about halfway down to "show windows contents whilest dragging" make sure this is checked | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Real World Computing (Me + a little help from Acer) OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 + x86 + Windows 8 x64 CPU AMD Phenom II X6 1035T 2.6 GHz Motherboard Aspire M3400 Memory 4Gb PC10600 DDR3 1333 MHz Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 315 512MB Sound Card OnBoard - Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 32" HDTV, (HDMI) + 26" TV (VGA) Screen Resolution 1920 x 1080 @60Hz + 1360 x 768 @60Hz Keyboard Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) Mouse Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) PSU Stock (400W) Case Acer M3400 Cooling Stock Hard Drives 500 GB Seagate ST3500418AS SATA II

Still the same problem.

Nevermind, after typing just "performance" in the start bar I seen performance options and sure enough the box was unchecked.

OK the long way is ...
Right click on "Computer" on the start menu or desktop, and select "properties"
Select "advanced system properties"
Click the "Performance" "settings" button
