This is happening in 2016 and 2017. It happens in Civil 3D and AutoCAD. It only happens on images. It happens on attached images, and the built in Bing imagery. I have tried updating the graphics driver, turn on/off hardware acceleration, jacked with NVIDIA settings, etc. It only happens on this machine. Works fine on others.

Keep in mind @AllenJessup, this is vanilla AutoCAD SP1 2017, and not the C3D SP1 2017. I still have the C3D one installed.
OK. I was just checking and didn't see any problem with Civil 3D.

Another weird anomaly about this too, is that is would also print those weird lines.
I am having the same problems witn imagery (tiff or ecw files) in Civil3D 2016 for a couple of weeks and I haven't been able to fix it, Bing imagery seems fine, no problems at least for now. I have service pack 3 installed and imagery issues are there weather I have it installed or uninstalled.
I am using:
Intel Xeon Processor E5-1650 v 3 (Six Core HT, 15MB Cache, 3.5GHz Turbo)
Nvidia Quadro K4200 4GB
32GB (4x8GB) 2133MHz DDR4 RDIM M ECC
500GB SSD
DUAL MONITORS: DELL 1908FP / DELL 1905FP
Can't seem able to fix my problem, please help.
Ok, I unistalled SP1 from AutoCAD, same issues.
Restarted pc and still having same issues with imagery in Civil3D 2016.
I have the IDSP 2016 installed.
When I print an image, these weird graphic colors also get printed.
Ok guys, I was able to fix my graphics issue without the need to uninstall my IDSP 2016 suite.
Since I had all of the service packs and hot fixes up to date for all of my Autodesk modules (3ds Max, AutoCAD, Map, Civil3D, etc...) I did a comparison with another pc here at the office that doesn't have these graphics issues. Turns out that the other pc (no graphics issues) is not up to date with Autodesk's SP's and hot fixes, I began to I uninstall a copule of features so it would match the same features as the pc with no graphics issues..
Product features removed:
3ds Max 2016 SP4 and SP3
AutoCAD 2016 SP2
AutoCAD 2016 Hotfix 4
Probably by removing AutoCAD 2016 SP2 and Hotfix 4 would've done it. I wanted to get it right at the first time so I removed them all to match the pc that had no issues.
Thank you all for your posts, they were very helpful

Have you folks tried installing either of these hotfixes?
