Details in Drawing Area Invisible

[Anonymous]

I am having a problem with AutoCad Architecture 2014 on my Mac Pro running Parallels and Windows XP.

The crosshair, grid lines,and actual drawing do not show up on my work space, either Model or Paper. When I installed the software two days ago, the software was working properly. I could see what I was supposed to on the drawing space. Something happened that has caused those items to disappear. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software two or three times but continue to have the problem. Since I am new to ACA, there is likely a setting that I have overlooked or accidentally changed. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Thanks,

Ray

Get a more current windows version if changing AutoCAD's hardware acceptation settings do not help.

Pendean, thanks for the hint. I located the Hardware Acceleration button and turned it off. That took care of the problem. I can now see the crosshairs, etc. BTW, I have the most recent Windows version of ACA. Ray
