Check your graphics driver settings. OpenGL might be set to triple buffering. You'll need to make sure it's off. It's not the usual error I'm used to seeing with this, so i could be wrong.

I solved the problem while putting the color quality of my graphic card to 16 bits. Thanks for answering.

Thanks for following up on it. This might solve a couple other problems that have been coming up. I'll try to remember this in the future.
