Well it seems that there is some type of application called drapes running in the background. Check whether your CPU has such application running in the background. You can possibly find it in the preference menu and from there do try adjusting it or if you cant adjust. Then the only option left with you is to disable that particular application. This will certainly help you. So check for that particular application In your computer.

Hey thanks a lot for the solution. I have finally figured out what was the exact problem here. Well the problem was due to the cosmos background set and you where pretty right in finding out the problem. So I have removed that particular background and accordingly replaced it with a good background image which is static. So doing that has definitely helped me. At last the problem seems to have solved.
