Graphics gone weird in XP-SP2

    Anybody still running SW2001 out there?

    I was recently forced to upgrade my WinXP to SP2 in order to run a
    specific piece of software, and now my old but usable SW2001 won't
    display sketches properly. Sometimes it will redraw with a CTRL-R,
    sometimes it won't, although the sketch lines and dimensions appear
    during a pan operation.

    Shaded views of solids seem OK - it's just sketches that are affected
    (even when superimposed on a shaded model)

    Tricky to work with!

    Try reloading your graphics driver. Try different drivers.

    Tried latest nVidia drivers (it's a GeForce 4 MX440) but no better.

    Any point in reloading SW?

    Are you using the driver SW recommends? You can find that on their
    website. The newest/latest NVidia drivers don't alsways work well.
