Quartus 8.1 graphics problems

Quartus 8.1 suffers from serious graphics problems. When i open a schematic (bdf file. nothing gets drawn or sometimes only half the graphics get drawn. Its like the window is transparent. It shows the windows background. All graphics drivers are up to date. Versions of quartus prior to 8.1 do not have this problem. (same machine)

How do i fix this ? This is very annoying. It makes quartus 8.1 unusable.

    Curious result,

    I wonder if this problem appears on Windows Vista too or not.

    They told me to copy a file called "quartus.ini" on the bin folder (i.e., "C:\altera\81\quartus\bin"):

    The content of the file is simply the following text line:

    NON_LOCAL_DISPLAY=ON

    Hope it works for you too!
