Greg Hess posted the other day an interseting tread to our Vue list. I'm sure, some of you are interested in it. Greg Hess wrote : I finally found a fix for any of you that may be using GeForce 2 GTS video cards, the latest nVidia Detonator drivers, and getting gray windows and artifcating of objects as you move them around. You can turn back on your OpenGL with a simple fix I finally found. 1. Go to http://www.geforcetweak.com/ and download GeForce Tweak Utility and install it. 2. Run the GeForce Tweak Program 3 Click on the OpenGL tab 4 Scroll to the bottom, and check "Use old TNT2 Instructions and disable T&L" This immediately fixed the issue I was having, and since Vue 4.x is the only program I use that supports OpenGL acceleration, it is a non-issue for me. Of course, it is easily toggled on and off by simply closing all OpenGL apps first. Hope this helps, Greg Hess

Thanks for posting that Guitta. I'm using a voodoo 3 card with Open GL support, and have never had a problem with it with Vue or other programs (except with a newer driver), but I know the GeForce card is a popular one, so I just wanted to say thanks. :)

Mike, I posted this, because I remember some questions about this in the last month. Me too, I'm happy with my NVIDIA RIVA TNT2/64 (for the moment... We never know...). I have a Vodoo 3 sleaping under my table. I bought it when the "ordinary" card of my old computer (PII-300-128RAM) died. But the machine never could afford this card, I had to buy a second hand card for it. If ever you know how to make work a Vodoo 3 with a PII-300, I would be happy :-)

Poser, Vue, Rhino, and a handful of utilities and other programs are all I understand....computers are an absolute mystery to me. :P

Greg, Thanks for the help. Vue 4 is now working again. I did a clean install of Windows XP a few days ago, and the Open GL drivers would not work as they did in Windows Me. I'm using GeForce2 32 from Dell. Charles

Glad the tip worked for you, Charles! :)
