Partial unusable desktop
The problem is the following: a portion of the desktop becomes unusable randomly, icons are invisible although I can double click to open or use right click in that area. If I open an application in fullscreen, it remains only on the usable portion. The problem started few days ago, after I re-installed win7 (fresh install, new hdds). The graphic card is ati 5750, I tryed 3 versions of the catalyst driver, 10.5/6/7 and with all windows updates up to date. My displays are a monitor through dvi and a tv through hdmi. On both of them the problem is the same, the unusable portion occupyes the same amount of the screen. The only way to get rid of it is through reboot. I used win7 for a year with these settings on the multiple displays (duplicate displays) with no problems at all and there is no way to test if it happens with just 1 display, as it ussualy happen after 8-10 hours of working or sometimes after 1 or 2 hours, whichever display is turned on.
