do you have on on board graphics so

To me this seems like a windows issue. If it was the graphics card then the whole screen would turn black.

Try this go to windows logo left click, left click settings, in settings choose personalization, choose color. scroll down to high contrast settings, left click. it should look like this. If it looks different the setting has been changed. And we need to get it back to default.

Do you have your background set to be a solid color?

Could be a Windows issue indeed however I would like to see the results using another video card. Even a cheap $30 pci-e card just to test with.

I think it would be better if he resets the PC or even better, if he performs a clean install of Windows before making the purchase

If we realize that the video card is at fault, it would anyway have to be replaced and so I'd say let's first reinstall the OS and see

Hi wolfpack103, I would like you to try these following steps first and let us know the results

1. Click Start, paste the following text into the search box, and then press Enter
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\

2. Right-click the TranscodedWallpaper file and rename it to something else like TranscodedWallpaper.old

3. If slideshow.ini is listed, open it in Notepad, select all the text in slideshow.ini if any exists, and then press Delete on the keyboard.

4. On the File menu, click Save and close Notepad
