Default Weapons Officer Torpedo reload screen error

When I put my cursor over the display the boat and torpedo layout diagram goes blank till I move off the screen and into the corner or if it does stay up and I try to move a weapon from external reserve to load the weapon in the respective rooms the torpedo disappears and I have to exit the game to recover from it?????
Help!

Let me take a wild guess here, according to all the people who have complained about this in the past. Your sub is an IXD2. If so, it's a well-known bug that's been reported for months, and to my knowledge, there's nothing that remedies it. That's the reason why I don't use the IXD2. I use the VIIC to about mid-1942 or early 1943 then upgrade to an IXC to finish the war/career of that particular kaleun.

Jim:
Just a question: Is this solved with GWX 1.03? I ask because I am about to upgrade to the IXD2, but now that I read it, I don't know if I should. Any info about it will be welcome.
Thanks a lot.

Sometimes this happens to me, but I never loose a torpedo.

I'm travelling along looking at the torpedo load screen and either an aircraft or a ship comes into view. When I press "I" the screen doesnt go away. But it disappears when I move the mouse over it. To remedy this I just click on another station and problem is solved. This is with a TypeVIIB.
I play GWX1.03 loaded via SH3 commander.

Default Version 1.03

I am up to date on all drivers and I am using the latest patch for SH3 (Vanilla).
Thanks - other wise I may have to go and find another ride.
