I just resolved a similar problem, I started up my computer recenlty and noticed a "installing new hardeare" dialogue box, even though I hadn't added anything new.

watching the above clip a little more on Youtube, I find the "jumpyness is resolution dependent. I don't really see it at 480P and below, and it's not even bad at 720P, but at 1080P it's a mess.
