      Try changing the OpenGL settings under Window>Preferences. Probably turning off Use Hardware Acceleration will fix it.

      And if it does, (diagnosing the problem) then you need a better driver to get that "Use hardware acceleration" (your graphics card) working again to gain full speed again.

      p.s. Don't forget to turn it on again after getting that new driver. You may need to search for one that better supports OpenGL.

      I downloaded the latest driver for my GT630 card. The strange thing is that this problem appeared suddently and I can't find out what caused it. Turning off HW acceleration helped but the resolution got worse. Upgrade the card perhaps?

        Did the problem appear after your computer installed updates? Quite often graphics drivers get screwed up by autoupdates. Check the Nvidea site for info, you might need to rollback your driver to an older one until they release another new one.

            Rich I wasn't referring to a specific bug, rather that Nvidia drivers can often be a bit touchy with a variety of programs and operating systems. They have so many cards and release updates all the time and sometimes they clash with windows updates.

                      What do you mean by '2013 M1'? Should I install an older driver? Which one? I use a NVIDIA GeForce GT630 card.

                        "2013 M1" stands for "Maintenance release 1" (SketchUp version 2013). You can get the newest ones here: http://www.sketchup.com/download/all
