Video Cards
(OP)
We are still running Pro/E V. 20 here at Ametek. We have been allowed however to upgrade our computers, if not our software, ugh. Anyway, a Pentium 4 with a Radeon video card do not mix well - we get both "black box" areas on the screen and "dragging". Does anyone know if there is an "easy" soultion to this? I remember having similiar difficulties at a prior employer with this and we solved it either with a Windows setting or a Pro/E one but it's been a number of years ago for that. Help, please! Thanks.

Sometime Pro/E doesn't handle that option very well and it can slow down your machine.

If this is the case, set the GRAPHICS config option to OPENGL and restart ProE. If you still are having problems, try ProE's video 'compatibility' mode by changing the GRAPHICS setting to WIN32_GDI. This mode disables most of the high-end graphics, allowing cheaper video cards to work properly.

However, after my IT guy's ulcer settles down we'll try the OPENGL fix recommendation.
Thanks again for the help - we need it.
