I'm a new member to compuserve so anyone who can help me if you get this message I would greatly appreciate it. I'm currently running Autocad rel. 12.c.2 on a Gateway 2000 computer and am having problems with my ati video drivers. I only have lock-up problems when I need to render a complicated 3d drawing. When I use the "render" my drivers will freeze all of my keyboard and I have to always "cold boot" to get my system functioning again. I've installed the latest drivers and that didn't help. If anyone out there has a similar problem…please let me know how you resolved this problem…..thanx r.r.robert

Roberto, Perhaps someone in the AutoCAD forum can help you (GO ACAD). This forum is for Autodesk's Multimedia products (3D Studio, Aniamtor Pro). Your problem may well be traced to a display driver memory or configuration problem. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates

Roberto, You may also want to check the ATI forum (GO ATITECH). I have the same configuration as you do and have had numerous problems with ATI drivers. If you would like to discuss it more, you can also E-mail me. Chris
