Inventor is closing down in an .IDW file

I'm having  a problem with Inventor 2013 closing when I insert a base view of an .iam into an .idw.  This problem does not occur when inserting a base view of an .ipt.  Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Is this reproducible using any assembly? Or just one special dataset? I can't reproduce using a common assembly on R2013.

Thanks,

For those of you that update your video card drivers on a regular basis, beware that doing this could effect Inventor .idw's.  In a .idw I was unable to insert a base view of an assembly, however I could do a part just fine.  After extensive research, I found that my video card driver that I had updated recently was the problem.  After exhaustive research on the internet for the proper driver, I finally found the driver that fixed the problem. 

So be cautious when updating video drivers.

Thanks,

Can you give us your system details so others may benefit?  What OS? What video card? What driver?
