This message unfortunately offers no remedy to your problem, but I just wanted to let you know that I'm witnessing the exact same behavior. It started several months ago and I have no idea what caused it. Graphing is one of the main uses of Mathematica for me so I'd very much like to find a solution. The only change to my system I can think of that might be related to the rendering glitch is that I recently hooked up a second monitor. Not sure if this change coincided with the breaking of Mathematica though. I sent a message to Mathematica support but all I got back was a form letter. Thanks for any information you gather about this bug.
