Sketches Dissappear in models. Why??

We just upgraded to SW 2004 from 2003. (Yes, we are behind :) )

When I edit a sketch in a model, the sketch sometimes dissappears. If I zoom in and out for a bit, the sketch comes back *sometimes*, while most of the time I have to exit and reenter the sketch to see it again. Even then, it would dissappear again, and Im relying on the midpoint/endpoint nodes to draw a sketch!!

Anyone have any idea what is causing this?

Video card is a Nvida Quadro4 900 XGL (6.41.10.6693 drivers)

The only drivers that are certified for solidworks are the 43.51, for the quadro4 900xgl. Try using these, many of your video problems will disappear.

As a side note, make sure you upgrade to 2004 SP 5.0 also.

I've seen this too when sketching in an assembly file, turning shadows on and then off usually clears it up.
