You might try using System Restore to take you back to a time prior to when
this began. Start\All Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore.

Conversely, you might try the following:
Open Control Panel, open System, go to the Advanced tab, click Settings
under Performance, place a check next to adjust for best appearance, click
apply and ok. If it is already checked, uncheck it click apply and ok, then
check it and click apply and ok. If it doesn't change as expected, reboot
the system and see if it then gives you the desired result.
