I am using SolidWorks for years and I have never Faced such a problem.

I have Re installed it. uninstalled my AVG Antivirus and firewall... but I still could not fixed it!

I really appreciate it if anyone could help me to fix my solid works.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

Farzad

Did you check to make sure your Video Card driver is supported and the Driver is correct?

ANother possiblity is something I have recently had with our Dell Workstation Laptop Purchases. The Dell has an Nvidia Quadro card in it, but the onboard Intel card is active and the Quadro is not seen in the SW RX. I had to disable the Optimus within the Bios to force the Nvidia card to be seen by the SW RX. Make sure that on your PC you don't have something similiar going on there where there is an Onboard card taking over, even if you have the correct Nvidia driver installed.
