Hey guys, so Windows Aero isn't staying on. I'm running Windows 7. So I was playing Mafia 2 when my PC locked up, I figured it was my OC, so I went and turned it off. When I started my PC again everything was fine, then suddenly Aero shut off. I have my CPU (AMD A10-7850K) at stock, and my GPU overclocked a bit. I know the GPU OC is stable as I've been running it for a while now. So what might the issue be?

Alright, it looks like the problem starts when other apps start up, MSI Afterburner, AMD Gaming Evolved, Steam, Rainmeter, or EasyTune6.
