    SW 09 Graphics card

    I am using a Quadro FX 540/PCI/SSE2 graphics card for SW 09 PR2, but I am not finding my card under my current computer specs under the Video Card Testing web page. What gives? I tired of getting "fuzzy" images when I use a large assembly.

    Drawing Standards

    Thats what I thought. Another question. If you have 5 total revisions throughout the history of the part, do you need to list all the revisions on the page. For example one company I worked for only listed the last 2 revisions of a part. So it would only show (for example) Revs D and E. But...

    Drawing Standards

    Does anyone know the standard on my current situation? Here is the example: I have a certain drawing that has a release date of 11/7/2007 by the draftsman, and a date of approval by our engineer of 11/7/2007 (in the title block, not the revision block). Now if a revision of the drawing is...
