Start menu/splash animations bogging down system after driver update.

A few days ago I upgraded my ATI drivers for Doom 3 to make sure
everything was up to date. After doing this anything with a fade
in/out menu system, such as the start button animates VERY slow fading
in or out. I've noticed anything that starts with a splash screen or
uses certain programming (like my weather channel desktop program)
functions VERY slowly and TOTALLY bogs down the system resources. My
first move was to simply do a virus/spyware scan but that came up with
nothing. And besides, I notice no slowdown in performance EXCEPT when
some sort of transparency transition is taking place. This started
immediately after upgrading the ati drivers. Anyone know what could be
causing this?
