Hi all.
I have been having this problem of all my neocom, chat and overview windows vanishing of the screen, Then if I do not right click quickly enough on the screen the whole game locks up. If I do right click on the screen the windows re-appear.
I have only had this problem since the latest update.
Have spoken to CCP about this and they suggested the usual, new drivers, clearing out the cache files and dropping down to DX9. The first 2 did nothing, Dropping to DX9 slowed the number of occurances ,But it still happens.
I have also checked possible memory issues and overheating problems with nothing found amiss.
My system is more than capable of running EVE at the settings I use.
GTX 560 Ti with 1 GB memory.
4 GB RAM,
3ghz intel Q9650 processor.
1TB hard drive.
Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.
Any other suggestions that have not been tried would be gratefully received.

Getting the same problem - I just tried clearing all cache files and reinstalling the client just to see if that helps.

Mostly happens in station but sometimes in space - if it happens in combat that'll proper screw me up :(

Its also happening over 2 completely different PCs running fairly different hardware so I don't think its a hardware/drivers issue.

EDIT: Same issue as this thread https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=306243
