Nice jeep you have there!

I tested your file and there is no lag with Unwrap-UVW.Everything is nice and smooth, so we can rule out any problems with your model. 15 Mat-ID`s is nothing and shouldn`t bring 3dsmax down. And your model is pretty low-pols. Since 3dsmax edit-UV`s window is DX-accelerated i would look into:

1) Updating you graphic-cards driver.

2) Check the Power Managment Settings in the Nvidia-Control panel

3) Reset User Settings.

No its back, i tried another card same, is new ram cpu and motherboard,

ok here goes when you first import jeep fbx all is fine and dandy, when you go to uvw unwrap all is fine, its when you select id 1 polys the unwrap. all is good untill i go to uvw poly id 2 unwrap apply square projection the go to editor all looks fine untill i then isolate id2 uvs by in the editor select id2 only then its start then locked up and have to use task manager to close max, i noticed the top box in editor is also flashing i moved the mouse to show you where it is, the mouse doesnt freeze at all , see pic top right icon also flashes, my mouse didnt capture.

Hooray it Finally fixed 100 % Hope this helps others its not settings or hardware, see pic, in the uvw editor there is a drop down box i saw bitmap selected in there set , reset texture list .then select pattern checker instead of bitmap 2 no lag perfect. i have verified this by selecting on bitmap 2 again on and off lag goes on and off, not sure what bitmap 2 is or where its from. spent 12 hours fixing this .im now much older person.

thks to all that help me i greatly appreciate it and love you all

Ps im not gay though

pS in material slot id 1 i had a reference image which i replace with a id1, think something happend there.

now ive got to put my good graphics card back
