Every game I play runs fine for about 10 mins in fullscreen.
After that the graphics become distorted with neon bright colors.
If i switch back to window mode the screen returns to normal.
The problem only happens in fullscreen.
Is there a work around for this?

If you go fullscreen again is it already broken or you have to wait another 10min for the effect to happen?
