Alrighty guys, i'm runnig solid edge 12 and i have one of the video cards that the makers suggest i use that takes advantage of all the new 3d abilities of the program, my question is, why is it that when im rotating some of my renderings that the system hands for a bit and eventualy catchs up to itself? As a whole i dont mind, but my system specs are way beyond whats needed andi guess i dont understand why im having a hassle with it.

thanks.

Go to the Options under the Tools menu. In the view tab, make sure that you are on "Graphics Card Driven" and not Backing Store or Software Driven. It sounds like you are on backing store.

Alrighty, i checked that out.
What is wierd is that its just this box thats doing it, i have 4 other boxes that are basically identical and dont have this problem and for the life of me i cant figure out what might be the problem.
Does solid edge store its settings for the program in a file or something that i could port over from one computer to the next so i know that all the settings are identical from box to box?
