Sorry i couldn't provide a screenshot because this is not something that you can describe in a photo...

Hello, i am a windows 11 user, everything is latest update. [23H2 - 22631.2861]

I have the weirdest bug ever in my 34 year old lifetime. Whenever i open a strategy game like "Frostpunk, Against the Storm, SteamWorld Build" if i click constantly, i see my desktop items in a blink. It is randomly appearing, making those games unberable and giving me headaches.

What could be the problem? Please help, thank you.

Things i've tried:
* Disable Resize Bar.
* Re-Install graphics card driver
* Reboots..
* Uninstalling every single unneccessary 3rd party programs.

Hi @DoloYeto , welcome to the Forum.

That certainly is an unusual problem. To assist in diagnosing your issue, you could try running a memory test, and also try the game(s) at a lower resolution.

Here is a Forum Tutorial on how to perform a Memory Test:

Hello @DoloYeto and welcome to ElevenForum. :-)


You might want to play around with your Hardware Acceleration settings...


Most browsers have a hardware acceleration toggle. So does Windows 11.
You need to play around with them and see what works best for you.

You have four possibilities... [HA = Hardware Acceleration]

1. Windows HA ON... Browser HA OFF
2. Windows HA ON... Browser HA ON
3. Windows HA OFF... Browser HA OFF
4. Windows HA OFF... Browser HA ON

Se if one of the four possibilities helps with your problem.

Are you playing in Windowed mode? If so, don't. Let the game run full screen and see what happens.

Hello, thank you for your kind reply.

I meant... try the four different combinations of HA, and see if one of them fixes the problem.
