This is not a proper solution IMHO. If
a state of the art FAST graphics and widely used card is not compatible with a
graphics intensive product like MapInfo and the solution is to change the
hardware to something less? I am sorry but not a great solution. neil From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom & Lisa Orr Thanks to Nick Hall, Ian Tidy, Robert
Crossley, Greg Francisco and Markus Linder for their pointers and Bill Williams
for the phone support. Original Post: Just updated monitor and video card – now having
trouble with MapInfo locking up. Using MapInfo V8.5 Dell 24” LCD 2407WFP NVIDIA GeForce 6800XT video card using 1920 by 1200
resolution Windows XP Pro SP2 Pentium 4 S775-650 3.4Ghz GA 8N-SLI PRO Motherboard Replies: Not sure if its much help but my
colleague's laptop does the same when he selects something - it's probably the
nvidia graphics card. we ended up replacing it with a non nvidia and the
problem went away. HTH Nick Tom, Make sure you don't
have the NVIDIA Menu turned on. Make sure this is turned off. I have
a FX1300 and the NVIDIA Menu causes MapInfo to stop working. Hope This helps. Cheers Ian Hi guys, Try slowing down the hardware acceleration
in the graphics settings. That used to have an issue with not redrawing. G'day
Tom, Below are
some responses I gave to Bill Williams at Parliament House Library. We are
now using MapInfo 8.0 and still need to force the LCD monitors to refresh once
in a while. I
suggest you trial another card to eliminate that part of the puzzle. We changed
to Matrox Millennium P650 PCIe 128 with 128 Mb memory and all is well. There
are a few posts on this in the archives. HTH Greg. Hello, i have the same problem using MapInfo 8.5 Dell Inspirion 9400 XP Pro SP2 P4 T2400 Dual Core NVIDIA 6800 by 1920x1200 i found a lot of event-log messages caused by nview
but have no solution at all. I you find something out, please let me know. Very annoying,
because always when MapInfo hangs, i have to kill and restart the epxlorer as well. Regards Markus Result: I switched off the NVIDIA menu as Ian
suggested and MapInfo has not locked up since. I have however decided to replace the
card as I now see strange linear artifacts across solid regions that come and
go as I zoom in and out. Thanks Tom Orr Orr and Associates QLD 4852 Phone: +61 (0)7 40688692 Fax:
