      Interesting. Traditionally nVidia has been much better than ati for sketchup. Have you found an older driver that works for you? I haven't updated my driver in a long time. It always seemed good in theory but at best I noticed no improvements. At worst, it caused new issues.

        No issues with the Quadro drivers they work fine -- it's seems this is just gamer card driver problems.

          the recent updates are mostly aimed at BF3 problems.

            I just updated yesterday to 285.62 WHQL, I bought a GeForce GTX 590 (to use for Lumion) so far it's all great, running 3 monitors, SU issues all sorted out (was having an issue with previous driver)

              Sorry to hear about your problems.

              I have a GTX 570 and just updated to 285.79 with no problems in SU
              Could it be something else.

              WOW Pete a GTX 590. Id love to give that a spin on a few games.

              Exaggeration makes a dull story better.

                It's Santa's gift to Pete πŸ˜„ oh, and it's also most needed as animation has become a pretty lucrative part of my recent commissions.

                      Battlefield 3.

                      I didn't see anything in the release notes that would compel me to upgrade. It all appears to be pointed at improvements for specific games, none of which I care about.

                        Could be a garbled driver installation by installing over new driver releases again and again.

                        A clean install may fix these issues:

                        β€’ uninstall recent driver installation by "Control Panle > Software..." preferrably with admin. rights
                        β€’ restart Windows
                        β€’ install recent driver version preferrably with admin. rights
                        β€’ restart Windows

                        Disabling the 'fast feedback' option of the SU OpenGL settings should have an impact on these type of issues too.
