When I am typing I have text characters turn black or whole lines of text turn black. This happens on all sorts of websites and occasionally within programs themselves. I also have issues where text disappears in Browser tabs.
I have been trying to figure exactly the cause of this, but I am not having any luck. I notice this with both Firefox and Chrome.
I am attaching a screen grab for reference and any system update have been completed.
Thank you
Kevin

I'm having same problem, but its not just internet, its also time, battery percentage, Wifi network names, volume, etc.
I have not found any solution to this problem either, I have HP pavilion and its only about a month old

I have been having the same problem since last month. It started happening after a Windows 10 update, and unfortunately it didn't create a restore point even though it was a WINDOWS update (go figure). According to MS, the fix is to do a clean boot, but that is only temporary fix if it works at all. Here is link to the conversation on the MS forum:
I found this issue posted on some other forums, but it appears to be a growing problem and nobody has any fix.
