Lightroom White-Out

This is an odd one, but no big deal. On this Dell XPS 8930, when I move a Lightroom slider slightly faster than usual, I sometimes get a screen white-out. It's just for a split second, but it's odd. It's like a flash going off on a camera. Have any of you ever seen that?

I've not seen it on my Lenevo Legion. Which slider? I'll try to make it happen. Classic? Or, the other one?

I'm using LR 6.14, and any slider will give me a totally white image. I just tried it, and I can't make it do it on command.

I'm using 10.2. No point in even trying. Too much has changed.

Tried it on my 8930 with CC ACR. No luck. If I had to guess would say it is more due to overall graphics speed capability than anything else.

sounds like a Video card refresh issue.

Is it possible that you are also depressing the ALT key? For some sliders, if you hold down ALT while using the slider you might see all white.

Best,

Yes, Orphoto and OnDSnap, that makes sense. This is a basic Dell desktop I bought when my regular machine developed a problem.

What video/graphics card came with it & do you have LR set to use the card in your preferences?

Graphics acceleration in Lightroom - try switching off if it is on, or vice versa - see if that helps.

The subscription version doesn't have these issues, btw.
