Core 2 duo and equipped with a FireGL V5250, which should be great for CAD work. <BR /> <BR /> However, when he tried to enter the perspective mode and watch his model in 3D, a box with an OpenGL error pops up.<BR /> <BR /> I've googled around, and as far as I can tell the problem is that there are no archicad certified drivers for his specific card when running Vista.<BR /> <BR /> Is this true? Or am I missing out on any speciel drivers/settings and/or tweaks?<BR /> <BR /> Thanks, Pete</T></DIV> Tue, 19 Feb 2008 21:20:20 GMT Anonymous 2008-02-19T21:20:20Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Installation-update/ArchiCAD11EDU-FireGL-V5250-Vista-32-bit/m-p/33799#M4354 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>Hi,<BR /> <BR /> I am making this thread on behalf of a friend of mine whos just started with structural engineering.<BR /> <BR /> For his studies, he got a Thinkpad T60p.
