display problem

am experiencing display problems with Civil 3d 2012 on my Hp Elitebook laptop, when i open surface properties and go to styles dropdown menu i get empty dialogs but if i move mouse cussor out of the dialog they appeared the same issue appears on other dialogs. I installed c3d 2013 trial still i get same problem. I installed autodesk certified driver same problem.
My specs are core i7 M640, 2.8ghz, 8gb ram, Nvidia quadro FxBB0 1Gb, samsung SSD 160gb Any suggestion?

Hi,

 

>> i get empty dialogs but if i move mouse cussor out of the dialog they appeared

Have seen that, and yes ... only on HP's. If I remember correctly we only had the problem when using the graphic-card drivers that were delivered with the HP software. If you search for the drivers from the gc-vendor itself you will get the dialogs filled.

 

So check on the nVidia homepage for a driver and install it

I get this as well, and I don't have an HP. I do have an nVidia graphics card though.

Hi,

 

>> I get this as well, and I don't have an HP. I do have an nVidia graphics card though.

So I have not seen all existing problems around the whole world 😉

 

Anyway, if you compare your driver-versions may be you can find someone that works at your pc's. At least I don't think that it's a problem with all nVidia cards on all Civil3D workstations.

 

Good luck, - alfred -

Gentlemen,

to exclude driver isseus, you'd only restart your machine in Safe Mode (click F8 as Bios' screen disappears), then login as Admin, and run Autocad to see how it behaves.

I have the same problem. This is very annoying. Especialy when trying to change parameters in the alignment geometry panorama. Moving outside te panorama will activate the selected line but immediatly deactivate te panorama (turns gray). Wich means i don't even get a chance to change the values of the parameteres.

 

Are there any developments on this issue yet?
