Fragments of desktop applications remain on windows desktop screen

I am using a Dell laptop running Windows 7, my docking station connects to two LG 24" monitors via DVI cables. I have been noticing fragments of desktop applications remaining on the screen, if I hover a desktop application over the top then this 'wipes the fragments away'

I updated to the latest video card drivers on the Dell web-site, checked refresh rate etc and the issue persists.

Navigate to Advanced System Settings (Control Panel\System and Security\System)
Select settings within the performance area
Select custom
Uncheck the following:

Fade out menu items after clicking

Boom - no more nasty window fragments!
