For some reason I only get partial graphics on Seti tasks. The animated graph at the top next to the progress bar is there (that display the search for triplets etc), but the main display (the box with the time/frequency/power graph) is empty.

I've looked at my preferences and the graphics is set to Classic, with the effect set to Rainbow.

I'm using a Haswell processor with no separate GPU card as a new build. Is it because I only have the i5's onboard graphics - previously I had an Nvidia card as part of an Athlon system?

Naturally my new build crunches through work units far more quickly but I miss the graphical display of it.

Only a minor issue but it's an annoyance.

I'm using Win 7 with all the latest drivers and versions of BOINC/seti etc.

It is the same whether I let the screensaver run or use the Display Graphics option.

It's a known issue with Intel integrated graphics chips. I have the same issue on my Core i7 2700K Home Theatre PC. There is no solution at this time.

Shame. Oddly enoough I walked into the room and there was the graph displaying. But I'd played around with the preferences setting and I think it was set to "custom" and "planes"
