Hi All,
I was facing the same issue with my Laptop Compaq - AMD-Athlon-X2 -QL-64, Nvidia 8200, 3GRam. I am running Ubuntu using Wubi.
"top" used to give Xorg as 100% of one of the cores if you move a window it simply shot up, and the other windows used to appear with a "curtain" effect!!.
Anyhoos, was able to solve it as below

I guess the problem was with the NVidia Drivers download the latest NVIDIA drivers from the Nvidia site(http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/linux_display_amd64_185.18.31_uk.html .. please choose your video card details etc). restart using safe mode and select the root display and run the command sh NVIDIA... should be working fine after this. and yes do not forget to update the system using the update manager...

Hope it helps
