Here's a copy of my email to Prolink:



Hi,

I recently bought a PixelView GeForce FX5700 and am very happy with the card except for one problem:

I use Alias’ Maya 5.0 Unlimited on my system and I find that with the FX5700, I get a viewport refresh problem whenever I switch to and from viewport mode (pressing the spacebar). This seems to be a common problem as there have been many mentions in various Maya related bulletin boards (I’ve included some links to forum threads for you to take a look at).

I reviewed the release notes for the driver release 53.03 but there is no mention of this issue. The only solution that seems to work for some users is to roll-back their drivers to version 44.03 which, although seems to resolve the viewport problems, has a negative impact on performance.

I hope that you could provide some assistance or pointers.
