hello, i just recently found out Sierra chart doesnt use your graphics card from the factory. when i turned it on my chartbooks that would run very laggy ran at lightning speed. now that the market is open, every 5 seconds all of my charts will do a flash, then certain areas will highlight with grey boxes. and then it all goes back to normal. and this keeps happening.

has this happened before? is there a way i can get this to stop so my GPU is still working with SC

It sounds like you are using an AMD graphics adapter and we have heard of this issue in this case:
then certain areas will highlight with grey boxes.

We have no control over this.

This will not happen with Nvidia.
