Windows 7 Graphical Problem Anonymous 2016-07-06 00:49:40 Post No. 151566 [Report]
When running games in fullscreen mode, if I have background programs open, they occasionally flicker on-screen for a split-second, like a subliminal message, even though the program does not have focus. For example, if I have Windows Explorer open, I might see the zoomed up text of file names. If I have Winamp open, I might see part of the playlist.

Is there a particular name for this that I can google a solution for (I haven't had luck searching for "flickering"), or is someone familiar with this issue that can offer advice?

Graphics card is an ASUS HD7850 if that matters.

you might have a screen magnifier program running.

Fullscreen games typically have their own resolution they are set to play at, so the background is magnified to match. That still wouldn't explain the flickering problem though.
