I recently installed the 64 bit version of blender on windows 7(64 bit) However, whenever I use box-select, the editing area goes black and all the vertices and edges in my mesh turn red. In installed 64 bit python and it runs find. Does anyone know a fix?
P.S. If an admin read this, can you change my name to lastphoenixstudios? I typed in the wrong name during sign-up.
Try updating your graphics card drivers. Quick and easy fix, and most likely the culprit when graphics are an issue, rather than the operating system. I am running Windows 7 x64 my self, and am going strong.
