How to stop visual effects?

XP Pro

Found the section to alter visual settings however there is one I want to disable.

When you have a window open and you move it, the windows does a scrolling type of effect -
quickly disappears and reappears from top to bottom or vice versa. Too quick to work out.
I cannot stand it doing that and it did not do it before I reinstalled XP today.


Thanks
