dragging windows leaves white, CPU spikes

Hey all, I have a client with a strange problem. When having certain backgrounds (say a homemade photo), when she drags a window across the desktop or even moves it around it paints the background white momentarily. But some backgrounds do not cause this. We have also noticed that when the screen is being painted white while moving the window...the CPU spikes up to 80 to 100%. I have been google searching for the last hr and have found nothing to help. Can anyone suggest a fix or what I need to look for? Thanks mtaffer
