andar424 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 My display adapter/driver crashes sometimes while in Inventor. Is there any command or option like redraw from AutoCAD in Inventor? It happens randomly for the most part, but I did notice when I plug in my phone to the computer AutoPlay comes up, and that has made it crash a few times. Went into AutoPlay options and told it to do nothing from now on when I connect my phone. I will see if that helps, but was curious if anyone had a solution to the display not showing after it recovers. Inventor still runs and is fully functional, except for showing anything. I've tried to tile my windows and switching to a window, but nothing helps. Thanks in advance guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy_Camper Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Try running a different version of graphic drivers but do a clean uninstall http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihVEGWrk5E4 I just did a quick google search, try google as well, it's not straight forward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andar424 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Do you want me to do a clean install regardless of what version driver I have? I've made sure my drivers were all updated, and made sure I have all the updates to Inventor 2013 so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy_Camper Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 The latest cat drivers are not necessary best, i don't run latest drivers. I stick to what works for me. Up to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
