Hi all,
I got a new laptop and installed Descartes SS4 straight away. To my dismay when drawing with a POD loaded, the display driver kept stopping about every 10-20 seconds. Screen goes black, then recovers and goes back to normal, only about 2-3 seconds but when it happens frequently it's very annoying and unproductive!
After a bit og Googling I found that there is a Known Issues list, and on it I found a fix for my issue! It seems that it's a Direct X thing so if you have the same problem you just need to set an Environment Variable as follows:
Nvidia Driver Issue
If you have error messages related to the display driver, you should set the following variable at the Operating System level, not as a MicroStation environment variable.
QV_D3DVERSION=9
