I can't really post a screenshot of this as it is infrequent and only last for a few seconds and my reflexes aren't that fast. You could simulate what I see if you held up an illuminated piece of wax paper that is the same size of your screen and instantly put it in front of your screen and after a few seconds, instantly removed it.
This was a fresh install on windows.
I had previously run Memtest86 from a boot disk, but I suppose it's worth running again as it's been awhile and I suppose the memory could go bad.
I don't think it's due to a power setting or an inactivity timeout as it usually happens when I am actively using my computer.
I no longer have any unidentified devices in device manager.
I an trying to think if it has ever happened other than when I was using a browser as I really suspect at this point it is being caused by my anti-malware checking for viruses or spyware. I am using Spyware Doctor, G-Data and Commodo - the paid versions. When this first happened I was dumbfounded to learn I had left Windows firewall also running, but I have since turned that off and it did not help.
