Hello! So I've recently switched over to Zorin OS. I installed my drivers like I always do. But I get this issue, when I select a window it just turns black and no longer useful.

Drivers: Nvidia 319.49

Specs:

Athlon ii x4 640 4.0 Ghz
2GB Ram
Galaxy GT 640

(It doesn't do this on my ATI integrated graphics though.

Can you open a terminal and enter:

Code:: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

Hi,

before installing more drivers, you would need to remove the ones you have installed first, see this:
