windows in XP shake rapidly when opened (maximized)
« on: January 16, 2008, 01:36:13 AM »
I have a laptop running XP Pro. I suspect that there is a virus/spyware that has gotten passed me in my hunt to fix this problem. I have installed Trend Micro anti-virus the latest version and run several scans, ran HJT and fixed what I thought to be appropriate issues, and ran a free version of AVG anti-spyware and rid the system of them. After all that any windwo that I open up will start to shake rapidly like its trying to maximize but cant do it successful.

BTW the shaking also occurs in safe mode.

Any suggestions?

    Sounds like a video card problem to me, but without seeing any logs or an example of the problem, it's difficult to say for sure.
