    Last time I saw this happen all I had to do was rerun the windows experience score from the system panel.
    It realized it was being stupid and everything was good again.

    control panel -> system (you may have to set small icons in view)
    Click windows experience index
    then at bottom right click re-run assessment.
    Do this while nothing else is running on the system to get the best score you can.

    Screen may flicker while it's running, that's normal.

    Sorry to hear it, you'll probably need to do a complete wipe of the driver with driver sweeper or something, I would link you but apparently the link I had for it is no longer good.

    Hi got the same problem started couple of days ago, right after i updated ccc to latest version.
    did a rollback and all looked fine but after installing the old drivers the problem returned...
    It looks like a windows setting is corrupt and it allows offscreen desktop, my left border is not solid any more and if i print screen i can see the extra useless desktop wallpaper. is there a tweak that "closes the border" like a reg edit that allows manual overwrite of the screenborders?
    Aero if out too but i dont really care about that..

    Already backing up my files to do a clean windows install... the problem is new and nobody knows how to solve this...
    The funny thing is I have dualboot on my system with win7 & 8 and have the exact same Xtreme-G 12-9 driver installed without any issues on 8. If I find a solution I will post it. Did u try an older driver? before 12-4? I heard there where some issues so going to try that as a next step.

    to anybody who is reading this with the same problem i solved the issue i had some third party video drivers for an iphone app. if you have run out of solutions check your device manager and rid of all unnecessary display adapters.
