  1. What is this black box that overlaps part of my screen?


    On occasion, my screen flashes and shows a big black box on the screen. Every time it happens, the box shows up in the exact same place. My cursor shows up when hovering over the box, but nothing else does. How can I get rid of it?The only way I can seem to remove it temporarily is by restarting.

    :)
