Hello all. I'm having an un-google-able problem (I try and look up the problem and I get nothing but tutorials on something completely unrelated) and I'm hoping someone here knows what can be done. I was getting notices from DaVinci Resolve that my CPU driver is not supported so I tried updating it. now I'm getting a weird white balance flickering thing going on when looking at a white screen and a horrible ghosting effect when I Alt/Tab a game or move a window over a video playing in Chrome. For some reason, Chrome thinks the video playing is the most important thing so it's being shown through every window on top of it (provided picture is chrome in the back, then steam, firefox with the same video, then LTT. Photoshop has become unusable with how bad the white balance keep shifting and the canvas freaks out whenever something is resized.
I believe this has something to do with hardware acceleration because it goes away when it's turned off but everything that needs it starts to chug. Disabling the integrated graphics fixes it as well but makes the PC feel it's been throttled hard. It's never done this before the update and even rolling back the drivers didn't help.
Is there a way to fix this without taking away performance/disabling hardware? I've tried prioritizing the dedicated GPU and doing fresh installs of GPU and CPU drivers as well as Chrome (It's not just a chrome issues but figured I might as well try), and no dice. I thought I remembered seeing a fix for this before but don't remember what it involved.
