draging guides - can't see guide

Hi,

 

When I drag a guide from the ruler, and I don't release the guide to place it, it is a dotted line which is white, even if the background is white, meaning I can't see the guide as I am dragging it. How do I change this?

 

Thanks!

I cannot reproduce the issue, what are your Photoshop and OS versions? 

Is Photoshop > Preferences > Performance > Graphic Processor Settings > Use Graphics Processor checked?

Please post images on this page. 

 

What happens when you check »Use Graphics Processor« and restart Photoshop?

When you release the mouse, does the guide show up normally?

Yes, but as I am dragging it, I can't see it, so I don't know exactly where it will land. So it's a little bit of trial and error.
