Arduino editor screen glitches

Post by cosmith71 »

Anybody get these? It happens if I mess around in the menus too much. Specifically, if I go in to change a board type or com port. Not specific to RA. I got them with stock Arduino as well.

I think I may have fixed it.

I've searched for it before, but this time I came up with a post that actually helped. I used a program called Driver Fusion to wipe all the graphics drivers (old and current) and then re-installed the latest drivers. I'd re-installed before, but never fixed it. I'm guessing there were some old drivers hanging around screwing things up.

Nope, no good. It worked through one reboot. Sigh.

And fixed again! Seems like it was a graphics card utility used for tweaking and monitoring that was doing it. Makes me much happier!
