Problem with graphic card (screen flashing).

Hi, 

I'am using Revit 2018, student version on a Windows 10 as system and a NVIDIA GEFORCE 920M as graphic card. My worries are about the compatibility of my graphic card with this version of Revit. I noticed that my screen flashes every time I spend "almost" more than hour  working on Revit.

Is there any solution for this problem ?

 

Thanks.

Firstly you should make sure that you update the Nvidea driver to the latest update.

Update revit to Revit 2018.2

finally if still having problems, go to Revit options >> graphics and uncheck Use hardware acceleration.

Disabling hardware acceleration just stops revit using your dedicated video card and uses the crappy graphics in the CPU...  Your basically not using your expensive video card and downgrading...

 

What we need is a fix that allows the geforce card to run and not have graphical anomalies.

Um....that fix is simple, and has been around for quite a while.

Page is for Autocad, works for Revit too.
