Graphics

[cer7960]

I am a new user of AutoCAD 2015. When navigating in the drawing screen, the cursor has a trailing shadow and the screen flickers. I am running a new Dell Precision M6800, Windows 7 Pro, and it has a AMD FirePro M6100 FireGL V graphics card. Can anyone tell me why I am having these issues? The Graphics driver is up to date. Thanks, Cy

The solution is going to depend on specifics of your case.

You can start by trying different settings in 3DCONFIG, using the Manual Tune button or turning on/off hardware acceleration (button in tray at lower-right).

You can also search these forums for previous posts having to do with your issue (using keywords such as "performance" or "graphics").  Here's an example to get you started:

Thanks, turning off hardware acceleration seems to take care of my problem. I will review those other posts also.
