Default Screen artifacts

Moving the mouse sometimes (Often) leaves artifacts or squiggle lines where the mouse was, I do have a video card, 512 megs or ram and a 1.3 meg AMD Chip. Thanks :?:

Default Video screen artifacts.

I just downloaded the latest NVIDIA drivers for my video card and the artifacts are still there? I shut down my antii virus and firewall while downloading and installing the drivers, do I need to update my motherboard drivers to solve this problem? Thanks

Default Screen artifacts-solved

Problem solved....
It was a mouse setting. I went to my optical mouse setting dialog box and tried a lot of adjustments, nothing seem to work, finally I unchecked a box that said "SHOW POINTER TRAILS", no more artifacts whatsoever that is with this unabled,

AC3D's screen is clear and sharp, a world of difference. Hope this helps someone else in the future.
