    Finder scope flashing

    Whenever I bring up the finder scope it continually flashes, unless I drag it across the screen. Then, of course, it loses its target. Is this normal?

     I am having this problem as well. WWT also continuously zooms in, unless I hold the zoom out button down. Can anyone help me with these problems?

    I am having the same problem (as well as some others), but my system does not meet the minimum requirements to run the app......

     does yours?

    I suspect my problem is due to lack of the requisite 1-2 Gb of RAM.

    I have tried lots of fixes (I do tech support)....to no avail.

    Try upgrading your video card drivers. Smile
