Hi Guys,
I've been noticing some strange things with Windows 8 Pro 64-bit on my new laptop. Certain graphics and icons have been rendering oddly. It looks just like an image does on Photoshop when transforming it. Lines appear jagged and look as though the system isn't bothering to smooth them out.
I've noticed this in a few places, for example the graphic on the right of the Dropbox installer and the uTorrent and Steam icons on my desktop.
Here are some examples:
The computer has both Intel HD graphics 4000 and an Nvidia Geforce GTX 680M, which it swtiches between depending on the application (word processing compared to video rendering). The Intel drivers are the ones that are installed by Windows automatically, and the Geforce, the latest stable build.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Have a good holiday,
Daniel
