Hi everyone, While editing a notebook, my Mathematica abruptly stopped rendering graphics, instead flashing "Rendering ..." on the window's titlebar off and on indefinitely. How I've tried to fix it: -- Restarting Mathematica doesn't help. -- Reinstalling Mathematica (same version, 4.2) doesn't help. -- Using <<RealTime3D` does allow it to properly render surface graphics, but 2D graphics is still broken. Switching back to <<Default3D` reverts to the old problem. -- Copying and pasting the seemingly empty cell to an external bitmap display program (Paint Shop Pro) showed the intended graphics. Copying/pasting the cell to another Mathematica window did not. Could anyone help me? Has anyone run into the same problem? My computer has been running fine, I've checked it exhaustively for spyware and any other external programs known to cause glitches. Thanks, Julius
