Nvidia and 2016 gonna give me a seizure

My laptop came with Nvidia GE Force 765...  windows 8, Autocad Architecture 2016.

I have scoured forums (and have tried everything suggested for similar issues) to the flickering and flashing - it was doing the cursor trail, but that is solved...the flickering and flashing continues, it's intermittent - usually flashing/flicker with selections, even avoiding the selection of grips as if it were a reverse of the magnet.

 

I have tried hardware acceleration off and changed to the direct x9 convert from the 11.

I have been away from AutoCad for a few years, so forgive my technical ingnorance..

I haven't tried a clean install, and am a little leary, can't afford any down time, or a new graphics card...(I have a gaming laptop- and was running 2015 trial for a month with no problem -other than the cursor that was fixed with the directx9---

(I figured a good gaming laptop would easily handle AutoCad..should have done more homework!)

The Nvidia is set to update drivers automatically. 

I pray to the AutoCad God to have mercy and provide a hotfix!:

You need to check Autodesk's website for recommended or certified video cards.

I don't think that NVIDIA GE Force 765 is in that list.

thanks- and I did, it's not on the list.
Guess I gotta up my meds.
strangely it worked on 2015 tho. strange also, that I am not using much of
any 3d aspects of this software.
