Bug? in showing gridlines.

Hello,
I have this problem since installed windows vista: in some softwares i can
not see the gridlines correctly, part of the grid area turn to white, and
some other parts show the old result when i click page up or page down.

This happens in excel (office 2007), in Vfp, ...

In Visual studio another annoying thing happens: when i change window and
the new window shows up, i can still see parts of the old window; if i click
in the area, the new contents appear, but sometimes i have to guess what
should be there, because i can click in some button that stays invisible for
me, there.

I suspect that this problems will occur with other softwares.

Does anyone have this behaviour with Vista? If so, how do you solve it?

TIA,
Joaquim

This sounds like a graphic card problem. The display is not being updated
properly when you open new windows or switch from one part of the program to
another part.

Go to the manufacturers website for your video card and check for updated,
Vista compatible drivers.
