Just upgraded to SW2009 sp3.0 on HP Nw8440 with ATI FireGLv5200. SW2008 sp5.0 was working great. I have an LCD externalmonitor that XP sp3 has the desktop extended to.
I opened a part, and it will not show any of the part surfaces.
- if I click on a part surface, the whole part 'appears'
- unselect the part, click in the grey area, and the partdisappears.
- I can see a shadow of the part.
- if i hover the mouse across the part, lines appear, but nosurfaces.
- if I Dynamically rotate the part with the mouse by selecting inthe grey area, and holding the middle mouse button, and moving themouse, the whole part appears until the selected rotation/view isfinished, then it disappears when I let go of the middle mousebutton.
- if I rotate the view using the arrow keys on the keyboard, nosurfaces appear, and the part does move ( i can see the shadowmove).
- RealGraphics view on or off makes no difference.
- Material added or removed makes no difference.
- In Viewport Four View, it does not appear in Top or Front View,but the part does appear in Trimetric and Right view, but does notappear in Top or Front view. If i select a surface of the part, itwill appear in Top and Front view until the surface is de-selected.
- I made a new part, same thing as above.
- I re-installed the latest drivers from the HP website specificfor this machine. The same driver was working with SW2008 sp5.0.This is sp39320.exe, ver 4.0.100.1189.
- I shut down and re-booted.
- The part does the same thing in Section View.
- it is not limited to this part. Any part, previous or a newsimple part, does the same things above.
- I reset all System Options.
- I tried changing most of the selctions in System Options,Display/Selection, but is still the same. Also tried Performance.
- I can Show the planes of the part, but the part still hidesitself after deselection.
- changing the colors of the part/feature makes no difference.
- it does this in parts and assemblies.
After I tried to make a Screen Capture -> Video, the part isviewable in SW. As soon as the part is closed and re-opened, it isback to the same as above. Even if I just press the Record videobutton, but not record any video, it works until the part isclosed.
What needs to be done??
