I have a really annyoing graphic bug. Some models appear greyed out and one colored. Ships, Stars (not the background) and planets. The stars are just hollow colored circles for instance. The Ships look ghostly, and indistinguishable from the background. This is even more pronounced in the shipbuilder. Planets are also only circles. I'm speculating that maybe some model files were not installed correctly? I updated to the latest drivers but to no avail.

My debugg log follows:
