Geomarker and Zoom Extents Screwed up

Having some issues with my Map 3D project.  When I used to work with this file the Geomarker was right in the center of my map project when I did a top view it showed the full extents.  I had an AutoCAD Crash and now the geomarker is far out and now when I do a top view of the project it zooms out to an infinite distance.  Is there a setting in AutoCAD that fixes this because I've had this happen before but I can't figure out how to fix this.  Thanks.

what caused the crash?  what is "far out"?  Does Ctrl A highlight anything in the far outer fringes of the infinite distance?

 

 

What version of Map?

The crash was caused by a Fatal Error on my AutoCAD Map 3D 2010 program, which I reinstalled.  The extents should normally be 1:50,000 for this project but now the far out extents is 8.45 X 10 to the power of 20.  Doing the Ctrl A function didn't show anything outside the extents.  Could this be a setting that is causing the project to use a world perspective for the zoom, rather than the local extents?

Set GEOMARKERVISIBILITY=0, save all, restart computer, reopen the drawing, set GEOMARKERVISIBILITY=1, zoom extents: any changes?

Doesn't fix the issue.

Seems to be GEOGRAPHICLOCATION is causing the issue, but when I'm trying to change it to my correct settings, it's not working and reverts back to the incorrect setting.

Have you checked the coordinate systems of your drawing and all of your connections? Are they all intact and correct still?

I checked the map coordinate system as well as the coordinate system assigned to the Data and they are all assigned the correct coordinate system of UTM NAD83 Zone 14 Meter.  I also checked to see if there was any data that was outside causing the zoomed out projection of 10 to the power of 20 and there is nothing.  Any other suggestions?

Unfortunately it sounds like the drawing became corrupted, possibly due to the crash that was suffered. Just to be clear, this isn't effecting any other drawings, is it?

The other drawings aren't affected by this.  Will rebuild file.  Thanks.
