I'm using VS 2010 on Windows Server 2003, running on a Dell Inspiron 9400 laptop. VS 2010 runs fine, except for persistent and random screen re-drawing issues. Samples of these are here.
These artifacts occur as the mouse moves over items that highlight on a mouse-over event, while scrolling, and when switching tabs. VS 2008 has non of these issues, so I assume that it is related to VS 2010's use of WPF. Could it be that my video card or driver is not up to the task of rendering WPF? Some other WPF applications (not Silverlight) also have some of these screen repainting problems.
I have tried a variety of settings in System Properties-->Advanced-->Performance Options-->Visual Effects, and in the related "Advanced" tab, Processor Scheduling is adjusted for best performance of programs.
Many thanks for any suggestions!
