gadgets side bar

i am having problems with the sidebar for the gadgets. i go to move say the clock and it start flickering and i can not do anything with that side of the screen all so the transpernt sidebar that is to show up when i place my pointer over it will not show when the gadgets are flickering

If you look at the task manager, is the sidebar.exe process using a lot of CPU? Can you right-click on the sidebar and get the context menu, after it has started flickering?
