Sorry wasn't exactly sure where was the best place to put this as its a macbook pro but its a problem I am having in windows.
My Specs:
Macbook Pro 2007-08 (Not Unibody)
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz 4GB Ram
Dual Partitioned Mavricks / Windows 7
Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT
Hello, I am having an issue on my laptop that I have never had before. I seem to be only having this issue when I am on my Windows 7 partition and this issue doesn't seem to come up when on my Mac side (Mavricks).
What is happening is when I log into Windows I am getting these weird blue pixel block looking things at the top of my monitor and I have getting several lines of them. Heres a screenshot to better explain exactly what I am seeing right now http://i.imgur.com/QrKc3UG.jpg (see those pixel blocks?)
So what I have done so far, someone told me to install the latest GPU drivers and so I did that, now once it finally installed it looked like my issue was solved the blue blocks went away. Though after a few minutes and opening things up the blue blocks came back, but now they come and go when I open and close things and reopen them again.
I than uninstalled my GPU drivers than reinstalled them all again and the problem again seemed to have gone away but than quickly reappeared.
So originally they would just stay in the same spots but now that I have the latest drivers they seem to pick and choose when they want to pop up. The computer itself is running just fine its just this silly annoyance that I don't want to have and a part of me is scared of something being wrong with my GPU?
I really don't think this is the case because when logged into my Mavricks parition everything works absolutely fine with no issues and I don't get this at all.
Also note I have had this partition for over a year now and this issue just creeped up on me now the only thing that is new to my laptop is that my mac partition has Mavricks now but Windows side has stayed virtually untouched.
I have the latest updates from Windows for Windows 7 and installed latest Nvidia drivers as well.
I really could use some help here as I am totally lost thank you.
