Windows 10: Missing text on display

For some time now, I've been having a problem which affects certain web pages and emails when displayed on my desktop monitor. A large part of the text is missing, and just appears as blank white space.


See examples here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/acm75rme7j4sl9q/AAAoOftcmUCXqVn90SP_jufna?dl=0


Can anyone suggest what might be causing this problem?


Thanks
