Graphics Issue
(OP)
One of my users is encountering graphic display problems where faces see to distort and shoot off the screen (see attached image) we have had problems with graphics cards which are now fixed and we can't find any obvious preferences that will help. Can anyone offer any tips or advice?
Many thanks
Simon

Try to change your monitor (screen refresh rate) on 85Hertz it will be better. I think.

Changing the settings in itself may solve the problem. Under the "Large Model" tab we prefer to turn off "Fixed Frame Rate" and "View Frustum Culling". For larger models with inferior hardware you may need to vary these settings. The graphics performance evaluation might supply some hints in that direction.
Otherwise on rare occasions even with pretty up spec certified hardware after working in a model for some time I have obtained a bad refresh that I could only remedy by changing to another view in order to redisplay the model properly. In these cases even regenerating the work view was not helping. For us it happens only very seldom so I haven't taken the matter further as it was relatively easy to work around it. FYI In my case elements of the image were going missing rather than seeing weird extra pieces of information.
If you still have no luck, post back and let us know more about the Graphics cards you're using. Judging by the appearance of the image you attached I also wondered whether you are displaying model geometry or faceted representations when this occurs?

You certainly shouldn't have problems with those cards, but if you've two boxes with the same card that perform differently then you could try a card swap to diagnose if one is defective.
Scanning the latest postings on this forum alone you might query whether the 64Bit O/S is worth the trouble. Seems that there are a few of us who have 64Bit capable systems and have held off upgrading to 64Bit Vista and aren't overly regretting it. I mention this only in the context of your original post that suggested some systems are fairing better than others to point out which features that I would first query as to the difference between a box that works and one which does not.
Chances are that apart from my bit of educated guesswork I can't be of much further assistance, so I'd say post it with PLMS and please do let us hear back from you if and when you manage to solve it.
