This is likely a fairly disharmful related problem. It can though deal with enumerable possibilities. I nearly always recommend for one to review what has recently been downloaded and verify that no unwanted changes have been made, if so it could be malware. It is probably though the effect of a secondary program such as: Multiple windows, Remote Desktop, mixed settings, etc. Largely attempts to turn off the computer may help as it removes all user activity and stops the current programs that are running. If the problem persists yet you see still no activity of malware it is possible the actual Registry has been changed for the display. If so you may respond.
