I admit I don't even know if it's google, but it's only happened twice and both times using google. I use chrome as my browser.

1)preformed a search clicked on a link and everything best way to describe it was jumbled up. CTRL, ALT DEl and the screen looked like everything was pinched then pulled to the right.

2)used the address bar to perform the search and the above happened again.

Any advise?

I am off to check to see if there are any new driver updates for the graphics card. But I honestly have no idea what's wrong or whats happening. Is it a sign the card is on the way out?
 
I would say drivers myself, but honestly, that is a weird thing to happen. They look like massive artefacts tbh!

Have you tried a different browser? And thought about getting rid of vista? lol
 
It's windows 7!

Just done drivers, well infact the whole catalyst control nonsense, uninstall and then new install.
I had to switch my monitor on and off for the screen to come back, don't know what happened as I was loading the washing machine.
 
I have the same style of problem, tried so many fixes but some people just preach its user error. Havent had a 100% savvy patch since 275.33 i think.
 
Never heard of W7 doing that before. What browser are you using?

Chrome, I may be tempted that it's because my partner is signed in youtube, which means it's also signed into google (why the eff did they do that?!) so there is a custom google home screen, but since I search by using the address bar I basically never see the home screen. But may be an idea for an issue.

Well I don't know the last time I updated. :P
Coincidently checking times it's almost happened within 24hours of each event. Just 30mins apart!
