New build Windows 10 behaving oddly

[Bilskirnir]

I recently finished a brand new pc build. Everything went smoothly and seemed to work but I noticed an odd bug with my windows. Every time I maximize a window, part of the window itself will quickly flash on another part of the screen. For example if I have task manager windowed and then maximize it, I'll see the scroll bar quickly flash inside the white area before going to where it should be. I've used various other Windows 10 machines and never noticed this issue. 

 

As as for troubleshooting I've tried quite a few things. I tried two different gpus, and intergrated graphics. I also tried 2 different monitors thinking it could be that. Also tried both DVI and HDMI.  After none of that solving it I tried resetting Windows from inside Windows 10 itself. I thought that might solve it since that would remove all drivers and programs. That was the last thing I tried and I still am seeing the odd resizing issue. 

 

I'm completely confused on what could be causing this. Could it be a ram or mobo issue? Those are the only components I haven't tried swapping out. Any suggestions are appreciated as this is incredibly annoying.

 

I was able to snap a pic of it happening. This was inside file explorer and you can see how the icons that are supposed to be in the bottom right are popped up in the center. It only lasts for a split second, it's doesn't stay there. http://m.imgur.com/hNz9HpN

Well you can see if it is hardware or just your install by running linux on a usb (there is a wealth of tutorials on that. eg. http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/running-linux-usb-right/). However I think it is just a weird windows thing (it's still really buggy - I essentially view it as it is still in beta....) and therefore a full reinstall would fix it, I assume.

Pretty much what BuntzenB said, windows10 is indeed still a beta, kinda. Thats why it was(or still is?), to a certain degree, free.

"If you are not paying for it, you are not the customer, you are the product being sold" - in that case, you are the (beta)tester. (and yes I realize one could also buy win10, but the core message still is valid non the less.)

 

If you dont wanna do the Linux boot because of reasons, you can try a clean win10 installation or just rollback to win 8.1 or even better win 7, neither of these OS'es will have the mentioned issue, and if they do, you at least know its hardware releated (which I do not think).
