Occasional screen corruption

Does anyone lese get this? Usually it happens when the screensaver should have started but doesn't. The screen darkens and looks like a shadowy distorted version of itself. A simple start/shutdown/cancel refreshes the screen back to normal but it is irritating.

Also, it sometimes happens when the screen changes resolution (like when you start a game).

Does anyone have any ideas?

Doesn't appear to be a font problem or an error report in the boot log.

Any other suggestions?

As I said it's not a huge problem but it can be quite irritating!

Have you tried using 32bpp colour? I used to have graphical glitches all the time, but as soon as I went to 32 it went away.
