Weird graphics selection hi-lite problem

I've been dealing with this problem for some time, I need to ask if anyone else has seen this.

I have a Precision M6600 laptop.
When I'm at work the dock is hooked up via the 2 dvi connectors to two monitors.
Creo works as expected.

When I'm working from home the dock is hooked up via VGA to a Samsung P2770HD, 27" TV with DVI, VGA, Component, and HDMI connections on the back of it.
Lots of times the graphics window will go blank, I have to repaint or move the mouse to get it to repaint. Trying to pick things to dimension is difficult, the hi-lite doesn't always display. Selecting surfaces or datums when assembling most of the time has no pre-hi-lite when you mouse over the item. You just have to pick and hope you got the correct thing, and then wait for it to hi-lite.

I have an older laptop hooked up to the same display using the DVI connector, and it works normally. (Wildfire 4)

Is there a difference in how Creo works on VGA vs DVI?
