The icons in the notification area of Windows 10 "dance" and won't stay still. They expand and contract to show 4 or 6 or whatever.

Device manager also opens and closes the whole list. But I can't insert screen shots of that or icons.

Please try with the following driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25489/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-15-40-4th-Gen- Download Intel® Graphics Driver for Windows® 10 [15.40][4th Gen].

We haven't received cases like this, the closest case that we have received is the following and it was closed as an isolated registry issue.

The video shows regular icons on the desktop (shortcuts and such). My problem is with the icons in the notifications area at the right end of the taskbar--, speaker, date and time, and hidden icons symbol, for instance.

Did you install the driver?

Have you tried with a system restore? See here for the instructions http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/windows-10-recovery-options Recovery options in Windows 10 - Windows Help.
