Image degradation in Develop module

Today I imported 6 new image files into LR. After doing some edits on one image, I continued on to another image to edit. When I returned to the first image in the Develop module and selected the Crop tool, the image broke down into dashes of color across the entire image. When I view the image in the Library module it looks fine, but when I go to Develop module it breaks down. The same applies to all 6 new images. However when I view any of the 6 images in the Print module, it returns to "normal". I quit LR and reopened it; I deleted the images from the LR catalog and imported them again, and still encountered the same result in the Develop Module only. I then opened the image in Photoshop via LR and no issue - the image looked fine. All 6 images looked fine in Bridge. But when I opened them in Camera Raw, I encountered the same problem with those images as in LR. This issues does not occur with any other image file in my catalog when viewed in the Develop module. I have included screen shots of the problem. I'm at a loss as to why? I'm sure there's a simple reason and someone out there knows the answer.

 

Thank you!

Robert

Thank you dj_paige. They were corrupted files. I deleted them; checked the images files on the camera to see if the image would display the degradation, and there was none; transferred them to storage drive and imported them into LR. I edited the images without a hitch.

This is either a bad GPU or a corrupted file. The fact that Library shows the photos properly is because the Library Module shows previews which may not be corrupted while the Develop Module reads the photos off the disk and renders a new image each time.

 

What GPU make and model are you using? Please make sure you have the most recent driver for that GPU (if it is an NVidia GPU, please use the most recent studio drive and not the most recent game driver).

 

If that doesn't help:

Restore the photos from your backups.
