Yesterday I installed the new drivers of my nvidia quadro and since under solidworks 2013/14 I have crashes (just on a part not even an assembly)
Does anyone have the same problem?
My error message is on the openGL (so I don't know what it means)
Other remark
I have 2 graphics cards; A quadro 600 and a gforce 9600 (for my second screen). I noticed that if I install the driver of the quadro first, and then that of the 9600 it makes me crash. The opposite works.
@gt22: as a c***** I deleted my old driver file, and so I have to find it.
but I think you can download it from the Solidworks driver page for the 2013 version
Before I installed it I didn't have any problems (at least I didn't see them). But this is blatant like the previous question of tsimard about large assemblies.
I think there is a problem with this 3D view story
@Lucas
I noticed that with 2 cards (well until yesterday morning) I can have for example a video on the 9600 and SW on the quadro without slowing down or how to say the big paté when you turn an assembly, while when I was with a single card and 2 screens on it I had problems with the display.
The cost of the 2 cards is equivalent to 250€. If I want a quadro that can handle 2 screens for 2 separate operations (like one output with solidworks, and the other with bender or other) we start talking about 3 zero behind the number.
It was an inexpensive solution that helped me for the few times necessary in this kind of situation
This is what happens when you give yourself a little gift with a 27 inch screen and you want to update the drivers... I should have stayed with my 24 inch lol
@lucas: from experience Windows System Restore is a disaster, so this will be my last resort. On the other hand you put your finger on it for the history of the different cards because with the old driver 2013 it works, but I have a weird thing when restarting on the screen of the 9600.
@gt22 I took an IIyama 2773. It's a brand that I'm very fond of and that I install on my machines (the 22 inch touch model)
In addition, the price is very attractive at the moment on this model because it has just released the new one so 100€ savings.
I just found an additional wolf: in the bios settings of the pc, the management of the pci express ports was not activated as it should be, moreover the graphics chip of the motherboard was activated.
As far as your bios is concerned, if the integrated graphics card is active, it means that your computer can't find the right driver for your graphics card. and so it deduces that it must use the one integrated into your motherboard.
Install the right driver, and in the bios disable your integrated graphics card.
