Photo Desaturates/Saturates when Mouse Moves/Hovers over Module

Hey all!

Just upgraded to Lightroom Classic CC. I just noticed as I was editing that when I move my mouse and go to the Develop module to move a slider, the photo desaturates when I hover. It's so strange! At first, I thought it was just my tired eyes playing tricks, but nope- definitely flashes a change when I move my mouse.

I'm not really sure what to call this, so I haven't been able to "google" a solution. Obviously, this hinders color correction just a tad. Would love to know if there is a way to turn this off?

Thanks in advance!

    I've never seen this, but it may be an incompatibility with your GPU. Go to the Preferences - Performance and turn off 'Use Graphics processor' to see if that solves it.

      Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for your response! That's exactly it! As soon as I turned off the 'Use graphics processor' it stopped! Thank you again!

        If turning OFF GPU works, it's a GPU bug and you need to contact the manufacturer or find out if there's an updated driver for it.
