Strange behavior

[Anonymous]

I have two PCs doing this strange behavior. I have checked 7 of the 21 PCs
and got 2 to behave this way.

Create a part or assembly file with something in it. Save it start an IDW.
Switch back to the IPT or IAM and change the camera from ORTHOGRAPHIC to
PERSPECTIVE. Switch back to the IDW and the whole sheet is skewed. This
happens if I put views in the IDW or not. This happens every time I switch
the IPT or IAM from ORTHOGRAPHIC to PERSPECTIVE camera and then switch back
to the IDW. When the IDW is saved, closed and reopened then it is fine until
I do the above procedure again. Autodesk has not been able to reproduce this
problem. The file does not get corrupted. This appears to be a very wierd
graphics issue.

Has anyone seen this before? Would everyone try this and report back if you
see this behavoir and share your hardware/software specs?

Thanks to all who give feedback on this,

Jack

Are all the PC's EXACTLY the same and what are the general specs on them?
I've never seen this problem, it is wierd.

No the PCs are not all the same. The only common thing is they are all
Compaq PCs running W2K SP3, Autodesk AIS and Microsoft Office 2K (the
version with Access, it si the Business or Professional whatever it is) They
all have 512MB RAM or more. The two with the weird behavior have NVIDIA
Quadro2 MXR or Quadro4 700 XGL on them two different drivers. I have another
PC just like the one with the Quadro2 MXR same driver same everything but it
does not have the behavior. I probably should go test the other 14 PCs to
see if they do this.

On one PC I have uninstalled all of the AIS apps deleted the folders cleaned
the registry rebooted the PC turned off the Anti-virus software and
reinstalled no change in behavior.
