Summary Nvidia Quadro K2000M graphics problem

Thanks for all the responses but these two replies solved the problems.



Thanks to G.Bon for solving the crash problem.

_____

I created a font directory in the root of our PTC install directory, copied
the few fonts that we use into it and set config.pro option pro_font_dir to
point at this directory; problem resolved.



From: G. Bon



I can't remember exactly but I had a similar problem in WF2.

The problem was coming from font directory.

When you double-click in a cell, ProE load fonts list and that cause the
crash.

This was solved when setting proE font directory in different location that
Windows\fonts.



Hope this help,

GB

Thanks to Bernie: I knew this setting to turn off "show window while
dragging" was in Windows somewhere but they have hidden it so well in Win7
that despite looking for it there is no way I would have found it without
Bernie's directions!

I do not have a specific suggestion for your WF2 Drafting issues (Its been
years since I was on WF2), but maybe your problems are all related because
of the old software with a newer OS.

I seem to remember back in the WF4 days that there was an option for "Show
Window Contents While Dragging" that needs to be turned off. You can
find this in -Control Panel - System - Advanced System Setting - Performance
- Settings.

Find the option and uncheck the box.

While your there, you may want to just turn off all the "Eyecandy" and see
what happens. Hit the button for "Adjust for best performance"

Not so helpful was...



I hope these crashes cannot be resolved in WF2..so that you are forced to
upgrade to Creo2 immediately.

I call people "lazy" or "adamant to change" when they are in too old
technology..

Sorry for my wording..but I want to encourage to upgrade today..instead of
trying to resolve issues in WF2



My comment here is : I own and have run a successful tool and die making
business for 23 years and we have been on ProE since release 18. WF2 is
still a rock solid software tool that has facilitated the company to provide
world class tooling and remain competetive in a fast changing global
economic environment. Advice hoping we cannot resolve the issue can only be
given by an employee whose primary objective is not necessarily the success
of the company that employs them.



We will make the transition to Creo and are looking forward to the benefits
it will bring. However in the light of the threads on this and other forums
about the reliability of Creo 2 at this point in time, I would prefer that
we will choose when to switch, confident that it won't disable our
productivity and damage our business.



To all the other members of this forum, thanks for your help; to have access
to your knowledge and to be part of a community that is continually willing
to help each other is a rare priviledge.
