    Hi,

    What type of graphics card does that laptop have ?

    A couple things that could help would be found in Settings, Configuration... Under the Screen tab...

    Try checking the disable hardware acceleration and/or the disable front buffer checkboxes...

    If that doesn't help then at least if you let us know what the graphics card is somebody else can give more ideas...

    sometimes i cant see the arrow when chaining solids i click the wireframe tab and all is ok.

    if you are not chaining a solid then i would listen to the posts above.
