    So, I have this problem sometimes whenever I right click on something. The context menu is transparent when i right click an item.

    Then, whenever i hover over the menu, it becomes fully visible, and seems normal. If i click on an item, this is what happens...

    That will stay on screen until i log off or restart. I've tried disabling Aero, but that didn't do anything. I have the newest video drivers for my gpu. This is a fresh install of Vista. Anybody got any ideas what's causing this?

    I had the same issue when I had XP Pro. I never found the exact cause of the annoyance, but I did find that when I rolled back my video driver to an earlier version that it fixed the problem.

    You can try installing an earlier version of the driver and see if that helps
