Try to install the latest drivers for the graphics card and see if that helps.

I did it but AC12 stil not working.... I can switch to 3D and draw something but when I can move screen or rotate then it froze...


laszlonagy: you have vista 32 bit or 64bit? I think there is the problem... But how can I fix this?

Nice.... I found result....in scheme I change Open GL 3D to internal 3D engine and it works......thanks for your help 😉

[Laszlo Nagy]

Yes, this is because the Internal Engine does not use the hardware acceleration available in OpenGL.
But you will also notice that it is much slower than OpenGL so I think you will still want to get this problem solved so you can use the OpenGL Engine.
Edit: By the way:i have Vista 32-bit.

Hi!
I'm having great trouble trying to work with ArchiCad 12 in Vista.
I have Vista Home Premium, and everytime I try to save what I've done in AC, it shuts down... What can I do about it?

Thanks!

@Cjman - Try turning off Aero. Just change your windows theme to Vista basic or Standard.

to henrypootel: Aero is turning off automaticaly when I open AC 12.....

What is different between bussines and home premium? And why it is ok on 32bit home premium but on 64bit no?

oh, i forget one thing, I start AC12 in mode compatible with windows XP SP2.......cause if i start it normal it write that i have not instaled QuickTime 7 or newer version...but I have the latest version of it......I did not find solution that I started AC with mode......Do you know some other solution?
