Unhappy Desktop items flash or like refresh weird

For some reason my desktop has been flashing once in a while and/or refreshing i think. but not sure. I've also noticed when I'm in the control panel right when i open it it takes a while for the items to load up or something and it's not blank but has a pic icon of each item but not the right one, I'm not sure what to call the basic name of the format. but all of them are the same until it loads the right icon picture. sorry if this is hard to understand but I don't know wtf is going on. please help.
