Basically, any time I so much as breath on my resolution, I get a display like this





It's like that normally for my screen's native resolution of 1366x768, but sometimes it just seems to magically go away? Then changing the resolution again for any reason screws it up again. It crops up sometimes on other resolutions, or when I launch games.
