Rendering artifacts occur in my custom charts and in JFreeChart charts as well. The artifacts go away when I disable the new pipeline.

Here is the trace output:

EVALUATION Note that another issue with this board, this time on Windows Vista, has been reported: http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=247267&#247267 (The fix for this bug doesn't address . I will file a separate bug.) Unfortunately updating to the lateset available drivers didn't help. I suspect that the problem is with Present() calls with regions - I have seen similar issues on other nvidia boards in full-screen mode: if Present is called with non-NULL rectangles sometimes the rendering gets screwed (we even have a workaround for this for the full-screen mode). The submitter reports that using -Dswing.bufferPerWindow=false helps, and the likely reason is that in this case there are no partial updates.

WORK AROUND Disable the pipeline with -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false .

EVALUATION The issue went away after the user updated the driver to version 6.14.11.5665. So we're going to restrict the pipeline to this driver version.
