In addition to the above comment suggestions:

  • does this happen when DWM is disabled?

In other words, switching to Aero Basic un-hardware accelerated desktop.

This is somewhat endemic to all Radeon cards under some conditions. I have three monitors hooked up to a single Radeon 58xx series card and I've seen it -- but it is extremely rare. And I can't recall seeing it in a while.

Also I found a video documenting the Radeon pointer corruption and uploaded it to youtube. Does it look like this?
