Mysterious Lines

All,

When I zoom in or zoom out, I get mysterious thick "lines" that suddenly appear, or dissappear. I can't select them, and I can edit them. Also, lines that I do have, dissappear. I use CAD 2005, with 2 gig of ram, and just updated the video drivers.

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

I use 2007 and similar things happen at the edges of images I have
inserted. I believe it may be due to not using AutoCAD approved graphics
cards.

make sure that the drawing is set to 2D wireframe in both View menu and in
3D Orbit.

Also, if your graphic card is new, but not a Quadro, you could be having
some oddities that are harmless, but annoying when they do occur. A regen
will get rid of them.

Visit an ophthalmologist?
Seriously, can you post a screen capture?

Ironically enough, I have an appointment next week. Think it'll help?
