Tracker Problem

Anonymous
Not applicable
Using vista 64 OS on both versions of AC 11 and 12, we are experiencing an issue in the 3D window when editing any object, the tracker does not allow us to enter info or tab through the different inputs. When trying to enter the info or tab through the tracker flashes/flickers and resets.

If you type a number and immediately hit enter it will take the change but you have to be very fast or else it resets.

We are only having this problem on the one machine in our office running Vista.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Morgan Livingston

I experience the exact same thing. I could not figure out why it is happening. I am on Vista 32-bit. What kind of graphics card do you have? I use NVidia GeForce 9500M GS.

It would be a good idea to put you AC version and config info into your signature.

Don't use Vista.

Sorry, couldn't resist. (No helpful ideas.)

Yeah, if I could get away with not using Vista, I would. Thats why I only have the one machine in the office and have software that won't work with XP(64)

Anyway the graphics card is an Nvidia Quadro fx3700, which is supported for AC12 and works in other machines.

We're using AC11 and 12 on Vista 64 business on an Intel quad core machine with 8 gigs of ram.

The machine is about bare concerning other programs. the only thing I have loaded on it are the microsoft updates, updated drivers, mcafee anti-virus, novell groupwise, novell client and firefox
