Default Graphics problem?

Hi there! Just received SE4 Gold and patched everything (including my video drivers) to the current Version, and I'm experiencing a strange graphics problem I'm hoping someone has encountered and fixed in the past:

The screen doesn't seem to "repaint" at certain odd times. Here are two examples of what I suspect is the same problem:

1. On the "victory conditions" (and other similar) screens, activating one of the conditions does not automatically "highlight" the setting control to its right -- however, mousing over the setting *will* end up activating/highlighting it (turning it from gray to green).

2. When loading or unloading cargo, the window for "selecting the load/unload target" (population/units/etc.) does not show up initially. However, if you click on the system map, it then magically appears.

There are probably other symptoms of this that I just haven't noticed yet.

I'm using a Dell Inspiron 5150 laptop, and have tried it in multiple resolutions and in both 32-bit and 16-bit depth, and the same thing happens.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Oops. Yeah, go ahead and disregard my previous message. It would seem that the problem is actually that I'm an idiot.

I'm working very hard at correcting that problem, though.
