3D View doesn't appear using Realistic with edges Style but with other does

Hello everyone, 

 

This is my first post, I've been working with Revit since January of this year from zero (First time using the software). And I have created an architectural model which later on, I linked it to a MEP Project I was working on. 

I have been having problems with the 3D View in a Realistic Visual Style from the beginning. The first issue was All the elements from the architectural link were colorless or transparent. I did some researches and I found that the problem was the Discipline of the view (It was Plumbing), changing it to "Coordination" solved the problem. But from some days ago, around 2 weeks ago, I am struggling with a new problem which till today I couldn't find a solution by myself or any post in the forum. The problem is sometimes when I set up a "Realistic with edges" visual style, ALL (Architectural link and MEP elements) elements disappear but they can be selectable.  If I press and hold the mouse wheel to orbit, all the elements appear and even if I orbit, the model shows. Once I stop holding the mouse wheel, everything disappear. Something interesting is when I change of Visual Style, the 3D View works. 

 

On the other hand, I would like to say my pc was upgraded and before this problem, the 3D view was working perfectly without any problem in all they visual styles. In fact, yesterday I created a walkthrough and I exported it with the visual style as Realistic with edges.

 

Also, I attached two screenshots, the first one shows the issue that I have, and the other one show how suppose it has to be. 

 

Thanks for any reply, hope you can help me.

What version of Revit are you using? Realistic view render engine has been changed in recent releases (Revit 2021-2022.) Could be a GPU/graphics card/driver problem.

I'm using the latest version, there was an update, I don't remember, 3-5 weeks ago? But even after that update, it worked properly. Also if today I decide to create a new element (architectural or MEP) in a new project, it shows correctly.
