Wrong image refresh in java applet AND Windows 7

Question

I'm managing since few days a java applet that takes an image from an industrial product and shows it in a browser (simple web server).
There is following issue: the image is not correctly loaded and refreshed in its own window if just opened but only if the applet is running on Windows 7. The issue is solved as soon as I reduce the window to icon (minimize) and then resize it. I'm looking into java documentation on how to manage the image rendering, maybe I have to override some update or redraw method more, but it is taking time and I'm still learning. NOTE that the window opened does show the issue only when the windows size is not completely shown in the monitor.
Meanwhile I'm wandering if some of you faced and solved similar problem.
Thank you in advance,
Elena

Thank you Nitin for your quick reply!
These are the calling of the functions in the code. As you can see, before to show the image, we are managing a zoom/unzoom by mouse wheel and an addition of writings data on the image itself. All is working fine except on W7:
public void paint(Graphics g)
     //System.out.println("[ImageFrame::paint my paint!!!]");
     this.PaintImage(g);
public void update(Graphics g)
     // System.out.println("[ImageFrame::update]");
     this.repaint();
public void PaintImage(ImageInfo imageInfo, float fps)
     if (imageInfo != null)
          if (this.getImageInfoRef() == null){
               this.setVisible(true);
          this.setTitle("Image Viewer (" + imageInfo.bufferedImage.getWidth() + "x" + imageInfo.bufferedImage.getHeight() + ") ");
          this.resizeImageFrame((int) (imageInfo.bufferedImage.getWidth() * zoomFactor), (int) (imageInfo.bufferedImage.getHeight() * zoomFactor));
          this.lastFps = fps;
          this.setImageInfoRef(imageInfo);
          //System.out.println("this.getWidth(): " + this.getWidth() + " this.getHeight(): " + this.getHeight() + " zoomFactor: " + zoomFactor);////
          this.PaintImage(this.getGraphics());
public synchronized void PaintImage(Graphics g)
     ImageInfo locImageInfo = getImageInfoRef();
     if (locImageInfo != null)
          try
               this.resizeImageFrame((int) (locImageInfo.bufferedImage.getWidth() * zoomFactor), (int) (locImageInfo.bufferedImage.getHeight() * zoomFactor));
               BufferedImage bufferedImage = this.resizeBufferedImage(locImageInfo.bufferedImage, zoomFactor);
               this.overlayCodeInfo(bufferedImage, locImageInfo.decInfoStruct, zoomFactor);
               this.overlayPointerInfo(bufferedImage, locImageInfo.scaling, zoomFactor, this.crossX, this.crossY);
               this.overlayFrameRateInfo(bufferedImage, this.lastFps);
               Image img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(bufferedImage.getSource());
               boolean retdraw;
               retdraw = g.drawImage(img, frameUpperBondarySizeX, frameUpperBondarySizeY, this);
          catch (Exception ex)
               System.out.println("[ImageFrame::PaintImage] Exception: " + ex);
Thank you again
