Fatal error on Plot preview

[davidokonewski8100]

So every time I hit the preview button I get a fatal error. This was never a problem in 2007. Has there been any iformation regarding this? I haven't seen any yet but I often overlook things.

Thanks

Hope you find your answer in one of the two places.

No help on either of those. Most Fatal error when plotting applied to earlier versions of AutoCAD, this is seemingly new for 2008 ...

I had that same problem with plot preview, only it was in 2007. I stopped using it as it was a guaranteed fatal error. I just started using 2008 and have not had that problem YET...

Dave, have you checked your video card against the Autodesk Certified Graphics database for 2008?

Ugh this is frustrating ... I had the little popup from Civil 3D state that Autodesk certified a new driver for my Video card so i downloaded it ... and now that driver isn't listed ... WTF?

I'll replace my driver and see if that helps. Thanks for the tip
