Default Graphics Card Broken?

Maybe somebody can give me another idea or suggestion. Last week, suddenly, if I opened Flexsim I couldn't pan anymore and if I drag an object in the 3D view is doesn't show up. If I rotate the view or look in the tree I can see that it is in there but not on the position I dropped it on.
If I go to compatibility mode it works fine, so it should be graphics card related. So I tried everything from reinstalling drivers, reinstalling Flexsim, until finally I reinstalled windows 7. But no success, problem stays.

Graphics Card (GTX675M) seems to work fine, run furmark test with no strange behaviour. But considering all the other things I tested it must be broke or something. But maybe somebody else has a good test for the graphics card or another idea where to look for a solution?

The GTX 675M is optimus-enabled. Try creating a graphics profile for FlexSim to force it to use graphics acceleration.

For more info, see Jorge's post here:

Did the drivers update last week?

Steve

I had exactly the same problem as you. If I am right, your computer has 2 graphic cards, the geforce and HD Intel. The problem is because the system some how use HD Intel instead of the Geforce card for Flexsim. You need to re-select the card again or re-install the geforce driver and reassign Flexsim to use Geforce driver again.

Let me know if this works!
