Good point! I'll have to ask the wife if she will give hers up for a few minutes.

What version of Windows and what is the video card used in the laptop? That truly appears to be a problem with the graphics card driver and UAV Pilot clashing.
The last graphics driver for my ThinkPad under Win10 Pro gives me goofy graphics overlays in my golf game. I can’t seem to rollback to the previous driver either.

You are over my head but I'll throw you some info I found. I'm running Windows 7 and here's some more info that may or may not be what you're asking for.
Chip Type: ATI Display Adapter (0x9480)
DAC Type: Internal DAC (400MHz)
Adapter String: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650

It could be a graphics card issue or a corrupted file in the UAV app. I would reinstall the app, if that doesn't fix the problem than it's more than likely a graphics card issue.
Here are the system requirements for UAV Pilot. Your graphics card supports DirectX 10.1 so that is good, but not sure about the rest of your system. You may still need to update the graphics driver if the rest of your computer supports the minimum requirements.
System requirements

- Compatible with Windows
- DirectX9c compatible graphics card
- Min. 500 MB video memory
- 4 GB main memory
- Dual Core 2.4 GHz CPU
Is this the first time you have run the UAV sim or was it running ok and just started doing it???
Someone else might be in the know.
The UAV sim MAY not play well with Win7
Your computer MAY not be fast enough to keep up!!
If you know someone with a computer with windows later than 7 and/or a NON radeon graphics card you could try on that
It might eliminate some possibilities

Actually on second look, it almost seems like an interference from top left of your screen.
Any possibilities close by???

No that's not RF interference, it's his video card.
Your system cannot handle 4k, it's a dinosaur.

If it can't play on GP then yes you need a new system.
You need to purchase a system that is equivalent or better than a gaming system, fast, fast, fast.

That just happened to be the look when I took the picture. I can get an infinite variety of gaps, triangles, etc. while flying around.

I think he means when the drone is flying around within the Sim... in other words during normal UAV Pilot operation.

Vic,
If you are getting funky triangles and such your video card or graphics driver is not up to the task of running UAV Pilot. The latest version of UAV Pilot was released in 2016 and your video card was released in 2009.
It is very likely you need a more up to date computer to run the Simulator.

Thank You! I wasn't prepared to buy a new computer or software because of one glitch. I'm going to contact Toshiba and see if there is another video card I can try.
