I am new to creo and I need to use Creo for this project.

My version and Creo 4.0 M080. and I have a HP work station with i7-6820 2.70GHz, Quadro M3000M, 16GB ram.

As I was trying to go thru the tutorial, even just trying to create a new sketch on a brand new part, rotating view, changing dimension, etc...it will freeze like 5~10 seconds everytime.

I don't know what's the reason behind of all these freezes, my memory is only used 6gb, CPU is about 30%

I found a similar topic

but I don't know how to check all these

I believe there is borrow license option somewhere in the C:\PTC\***\Bin folder

I borrowed it and work offline, then it will be smooth

Hi,

the problem can be caused by graphic card drivers. To verify it, please open config.pro file located in text subdirectory if Creo installation and add following option in it.

graphics win32_gdi

Then start Creo and test its behaviour.

Hello Martin,

thanks for the reply, but it doesn't do anything...

but actually, there are 3 config.pro...I only added the command to the one in side Parametric\bin

and you see capture3.jpg, that all I click was a rectangle without anything open in the back...still spin for like 15sec before i can start drawing my rectangle

Hi,

you have to modify config.pro file located in text subdirectory in Creo installation.

Example:

On my PC Creo 4.0 is installed in E:\PTC\Creo4_M100 directory

and config.pro is located in E:\PTC\Creo4_M100\Creo 4.0\M100\Common Files\text directory.

Are you using a 3D Connexion 3D mouse or controller? The software for those devices has been responsible for erratic UI interaction and dramatic slowing down and even crashing of Creo Parametric. If you have one of these devices, disable the software (3D Connexion) and run Creo to test if it is the cause.
