Video Card
(OP)
We are running Solidworks 2009 SP 2.1 using NVIDIA Quadro FX 1500 video cards and have had issues. Can someone suggest a better (mid. priced) card.
Thanks

RE: Video Card
What OS are you using?
Is the SW-recommended video driver installed?
Have you looked at the SW website to see which video cards are recommended?

RE: Video Card
Note that the "latest" drivers may not be the recommended drivers to use with solidworks. You may need to roll-back to an older driver for best functionality.

Try uninstalling the driver, reboot, reinstall correct driver, reboot.
'Better' is subjective. The FX1700 or FX1800 are supposed to be more powerful.

Some people are experiencing lockups or disappearing views. We are running XP with one of the recommended drivers.
