Lets say you are going to copy one line. I have one machine here that when zoomed into say 200-250% (just a number), when you are asked where to copy the line to, it keeps displaying the line everytime you move the cursor. It doesn't copy multiple lines, it just looks like it is.

Like it is a paint program or that one Windows screensaver that has wireframe shapes. If you zoom out (more to Extents) it doesn't do it, and if you zoom in closer it doesn't.

Anybody heard or seen this odd behavior? If so, do ya have a fix?
 
Hi CanonShooter,

This is a driver card issue. Make sure you have the latest and greatest drivers, and then you can play with the settings to try and get it to behave itself. Some boards have settings to optimize themselves for AutoCAD, SolidWorks etc., so may look to see if these are enabled. Once upon a time when Oxygen cards were still around, if you set the cards optimization for SolidWorks, AutoCAD was fuzzy, and vice versa.
