2. CAN YOU RUN SOLIDWORKS WITH A 5 YEAR OLD LAPTOP INSTALL

Now that you have the HP, I'm not sure if there is an upgrade you can do to install a better card. you gotta be pretty lucky to get one that works and not lose your shirt at the same time. it's just a gamble and w/ the kinda $$ laptops cost. I've tested other laptops and I've yet to find one that works well w/ SW as these Precision models. If your serious about SW, the only sane thing to do is go and look up what they have for 'tested and approved/passed' video cards on their website I've got a 3 mth old 'Monster server desktop pc' w/ the same ram and an ATI FireGL V7350 card and the laptop kills it. It came w/ a Nvidia Quadro FX 1600M graphics card.

I purchased a new DELL Precision M6300 in December. If there is a knock against the program, this has to be it. Sw is tough on computers and graphics cards.

CAN YOU RUN SOLIDWORKS WITH A 5 YEAR OLD LAPTOP HOW TO

From what I read, This verson of SolidWorks should detect any OpenGL supporing graphic card and use that, but for some reason it does not.ĭid anyone else ever had that problem? or figured out how to bypass it? I would hate to replace a one month old laptop! The SolidWorks support line is no use, as they tell me "Your graphic card is not on the list of supported hardware, therefore we cannot help you".

I'm trying to solve this riddle for some time now, I cannot find anyone else with the same problem, I tried countless things such as reinstalling the software, newest video Drivers, and trying to trace the option of enabling the Hardware Support in Windows Registery. For, it enables Software OpenGL by default and disables the option of unchecking the "Use Software OpenGL" button in performance menu in properties. From what I understand it supports OpenGL, but for some reason SolidWorks cannot detect hardware supported OpenGL. I purchased the laptop in December, it's an HP dv2660se with Intel Centrino 965 chipset, meaning it has an IGP X3100 graphic card (integrated). However, I primeraly use my laptop for everyday use, since I'm home almost never. I have two computers, a brand new tower at home with good graphic card, SolidWorks works flawlessly on that. I purchased an academic license of SolidWorks 2008 for school (I'm an aerospace engineering major) but I'm having slight problem with enabling Hardware OpenGL on my laptop. Hey guys, I have a slight problem with my SolidWorks.
