You maybe right Chipp, I guess E-on are the only people that know, the point I was trying to make was while Vue runs well for some people for others it is a complete nightmare. Just because it works fine for one shouldnt be the assumption it should run fine for someone else. Some ATi cards are on the E-on approved hardware list so I really can't see it being just down to ATi and older OpenGL as some of those cards are pretty old anyway.
And if it is because of newer ATi drivers, then really its E-On the people that we buy the software from to make the changes to take account of driver issues. Vue supports the 9x00 range of ATi cards but they really are getting old now and hard to find.
Turning off hardware acceleration is not really an option for me, as I use lots of 3D apps that use the graphics card and games and they work fine. Easiest option is turning off OpenGL in Vue itself I guess, I have tried it before and it wasn't an experience I relished. But I may have to try that.
I dont have the graphics corruption that I used to get since installing my new card. And I can't really see how crashing on saving or loading is a card related matter.
Maybe its just time to start sending those reports back off to E-On lol :)
Thanks for the help though Chipp
