First there are newer drivers available. Second, your video hardware itself could be faulting due to defect or overheating. Try installing the latest driver. If the problem persists start looking toward the second set of possibilities.

i have already tried installing other drivers.but still the lines keep on coming.And i didn't have this problem with windows 7.does this problem have anything to do with the display settings??

Uninstall the current driver through control panel/programs and features, not from device manager/update driver. Reboot the machine and let Windows install whatever driver it thinks is best. Leave your display settings at default.

If the problem persists I'd again start looking toward a hardware problem. Because the problem didn't occur with Win 7 doesn't mean that a hardware problem has developed since then.

So you have a dual boot system and can still boot Win 7? You may want to post a query in the Nvidia Forums: https://forums.geforce.com/. It's also helpful if you list all possibly pertinent information including your machine specs, which gpu you have installed and troubleshooting steps you have already taken. It's hard to diagnose a problem with only sketchy information provided.

It appears that your gpu is not supported by Nvidia for Windows 8 as there is no driver listed for it. http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

Further, your motherboard doesn't appear to be supported either. http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=517

Hi,

I have the same problem as you, although my system has a different GPU, but uses the same 307.74 NVIDIA driver.

My conclusion, is that the NVIDIA driver is OK; the problem resides on the MS hardware accelleration software.

I bet you are using hardware GPU renderization, which is software developed by MS and not NVIDIA.

If you use software GPU renderization, you'll have no problem: go to internet-options/advanced/graphic-elements (or something similar in english) and mark the check box use software renderization.

Check again the Metro/Modern-Ui apps and I'm sure they'll work visually correct.

At least, this is my experience.

We are hours away from 8.1!

If Ms doesn't address this problem in 8.1, I don't think we'll see any correction in the future.

your graphics card is obsolete and no longer supported with new drivers

given how old your machine is, you are advantaged with a new rig
