Im getting weird horizontal lines that flicker and cause a weird corruption effect when I start my computer up for the first time in a few hours.
The thing is, it only happens very slightly on the desktop and heavily when i open a windows explorer window (ie my documents, pictures, or control panel. It will immediately stop when I open a program or web browser. When i switch back to a windows explorer folder it will do it again. After 2-5 minutes it will stop completely.
If I restart my computer it will not happen either, I have to turn my computer off or put it to sleep for an extended period of time.
Heres some videos
