NVIDIA & Pointer Problems in Solid Edge 2004

NVIDIA & Pointer Problems in Solid Edge 2004

(OP)
Hi,

I've just installed an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra in my computer.  When I try to draw, I only get cross-hairs in the drawing area.  Also, the cross-hairs leave a trail (or copies) of themselves behind.  

I've installed the latest drivers for the video card, but no changes were noticed.

Anyone else seen this problem.

Thanks,

GDA

It lists your card. You just have to pick on Nvidia in the drop down, then click tested and then Show all. This card passes with limtations and that is probably why your seeing these problems.

You should try getting a Quadro 500 FX. You won't see these types of problems with this type of card. It's not the most powerful CAD card out there but it does really good. I got mine from - http://store.yahoo.com/digitally-unique/vcqfx500blk.htm...

Thanks SBaugh,

You've been very helpful with solving this problem.  I'll post the card I have on eBay, then get the card you suggest.

Again, thanks for your assistance.
