The curious thing is it's happening on 2 different machines. 2 totally
different setups. I installed the downloaded version, and get the same
thing. I just opened max and set it to use opengl and I typically use max
with the hardware acceleration on. Max viewport refresh and pan and zoom
works much better when using the graphics card vs. the software. I guess
what's hard to swallow is that it's only revit that's doing this. On my
home machine, I have a bunch of games, max, adt etc. and every one runs
fine. I give up. I am going to try it on yet another different machine at
work and see what happens.

Not to be glib, but because there isn't. It's OpenGl. Which is just as
good, and as common, actually. Max uses OpenGL or DirectX even, and
gives you a choice as to which you wanna use.
Other thing I'd do is test your ram. I know of a guy who had a simular
issue of blue screening with Revit after he had his Ram updated, and it
was due to some bum ram he got. There's some freebie ram testing
software you can try.
It's not because of the dual processors. While I only use Revit on
Centrinos or P4 HT processors now, I did use it for a number of years on
dual systems, both Intel and AMD based, without bluescreens...
