No display in CATIA

[chamz101]

When I start CATIA V5R19 it just gives me a blank screen. Can not see anything in the start scree only the toolbars around. Even the option to change the display settings in Options - General is not there. Read many threads for a week now. Some say to adjust the hardware acceleration where I can not access it since its an ATI card.

Have used Catia R19, R18 and R20 on the same laptop for 2 years before, just had to format and cant get it back.

Please help. Quite frustrated.

Did you tried to set the P3 platform? Not a good idea if you did it...

Usually if you delete all CATSettings (see also

problem is solved.

Thanks for the reply ferdo...but yea I read somewhere about this p3 problem so I changed it to P2 although I could not see the option. The screenshot I have added are on p2 but still there are no graphics..

Hi we used to get this, I would check your driver version for compatabilty with tyhe version of V5 and we also used to have to reduce the hardware accelration on the graphics card.
