Realview greyed out SW2007 sp4
(OP)
Read quite a few articles but the tips did not help me.
have SW 2007 SP4
Quadro FX500 w/ 9136 loaded. Tried this over 7756
The icon is in my toolbar but greyed out.
Under the options/Performance Tab I noticed the Use Software Open GL is greyed out and won't let me check it on. Could this be the problem.
I am also using dual 19" LCD w/ Nview and have recently
started using a Space Navigator.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

FAQ559-1058: How do I set the Software OpenGL option in SW and turn the Hardware Acceleration to "None"?
FAQ559-1194: How Do I install New drivers for my Video Card?
Suggest you do an uninstall and reinstall of the driver per above FAQ.
If that doesn't work, try reverting to a basic single monitor with mouse setup, and then adding the accessories separately ... rebooting after each.
Could even be a defective video card.

Turned the acceleration down to none: did not help
Uninstalled and reinstalled the Nvidia driver, did not help.
Cancelled out of the multiple display on first reboot so I don't know if that has a bearing on the complete install of the driver.
CBL, are you telling me to try uninstall my Navigator and disconnect my 1 monitor on setup to see if that helps. If so I will try that another day as I have a few dwgs. to issue and can't spend to much time in downtime.

Yes ... but I'm grasping at straws here. Only do that as a last resort.
Sudden thought ... do you have the nVidia application set to SolidWorks?

RE: Realview greyed out SW2007 sp4
You have an option to not install RealView when first installing SolidWorks. Someone may have decided it didn't need to be installed.

You guys can simply upgrade as you see fit? What if the "latest and greatest" gives you problems? In a multi-user environment, you should test before you leap. Then again, there should be some sort of rule (law, edict, standard) in place regarding upgrades, etc.
Sorry, I'm just speaking from experience.
