Solved Windows logoff option bar not showing and computer is slow

[Fainde]

Hi I was wondering if I could have some help with an annoying problem i'm having. Sometimes when I turn my gaming computer on, windows runs strangely slow and the bar which has the options such as Logoff, Lock, Restart ect. only shows a border of the panel. If i put my mouse over the bar it brings up what the option does but doesn't actually have it as a button.
I put a photo of what the problem does to the power related options bar.

Hope you can help

Thanks Josh

Run SFC /SCANNOW Command, update or reinstall the Display driver, test your RAM and work through the other Troubleshooting Steps for Windows 7.

I have done those scans, i have done anti virus scans, i have done defrags, but i haven't done the display driver, i'll try that now.

Good news.

You can work through the other Troubleshooting Steps to go over WIn7 thoroughly and become more familiar with its resources. Establishing a Clean Boot can improve performance.
