[GiDlist] Problems with graphic card

I have problems running GID on a computer with a graphic card Matrox Millenium G550: it seems that by moving the cursor over the pre- and postprocess graphic area, the processing power of the computer is comletely saturated. Do I need another driver? The actual driver package installed on the computer is 5.82.018, the driver 5.13.01.1320.

  • Try to start GiD, the first time, with the ‘GiD safe mode’ option (from MS
    Windows start menu), and select
    use a Software OpenGL.
  • In this fail, then search in the Windows screen properties panel a option
    to deactivate the graphic acceleration (some Windows require restart the
    machine after the change).
    In some cards, the acceleration is automatically disconnected selecting to
    display with 256 colors or true color.

Try also a more updated driver (it exists a Beta 5.84) from the graphic card
web page http://www.matrox.com/mga/support/drivers/latest/home.cfm
