I just bought a new graphics card, an MSI GeForce FX 5600 VTDR-128 MB. When I start LW (running 7.5c) it crashes on startup and won't respond. This happens both in Layout and Modeler. I updated the Graphics card drivers from the MSI website and I did a repair installation of LW. No luck with that. Does anyone have any suggestions? Oh, I'm running Win2K on a 2GHz Pentium 4.

Check the openGL settings for your videocard and drivers...

Also try copying your lightwave CFG files somewhere else...from their original spot, then start LW without CFG files

Thanks, I'll try that and see how it goes.

I would try removing your current drivers, and get the newest drivers from NVIDIA'S web site.
