solidworks explorer lockup
(OP)
I have SW2005 sp3 on an xp machine. The explorer will not work, it will load, the graphics will "shift" then not respond. I can open pull down menus but am no able to select a task. The explorer problem is on two xp machines. I have reloaded SW2005 and SolidWorks Explorer to try to fix. Any suggestions?

What are your Specs (PC)?
Turn off all your add-ins, to see if there is a conflict between them.

I had to right click on the desktop, go to properties, settings, advanced, trouble shoot, hardware acceleration and set to none. This solved my problme. Thank you for your effort!

Then you should call ATI and ask them because it maybe a bad card. - because of setting that option you have essentially turned your Video card off and you will take a performance decrease because of it. If you have the approaved card and driver (Which you do), then it should work if it doesn't then the problem is obivisously hardware, because you toggled that option.
