    When in any perspective view or 3d Orbit and using any display option except wireframe, the crosshairs "erase" the image as they pass over it. Selecting wireframe and then back to other display options (such as hidden) restored the image until the crosshairs pass over it again. I am using a 580 GTX with to latest drivers and the latest Nvidia Inspector. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

    Do you have a spare graphics card hanging around?

    What are your 3Dconfig settings?

    No I don't have another video card to experiment with. This problem really isn't a deal breaker just kind of an annoyance. Thought maybe someone else had seen this before.

    Try using Software acceleration and see if there is an improvement.
