strangely enough I get this issue with Painter 12 on my win 8.1 machine. Even stranger, windows image viewer will not render images on that monitor instead showing a message about not having enough memory - which isn't the case... stranger still, if i drag the window, or painter canvas, to one of my other 2 monitors, the image/canvas magically re-appears.

I have a strong suspicion that all of these issues are graphics card driver related...

Try disabling GPU acceleration in the preferences.

See if there's an update for your graphics driver. That usually fixes this sort of thing.

I did and when I do everything is grayscale and some vectors aren't showing up on the screen no matter what I do.
Could you post a screenshot of that?

Just asking to be sure: You're disabling GPU in the Preferences panel and not only the one in the display options, correct?
