X2 files I need along with post

[Santa Fe]

I got a new computer installed by our IT guy and when I come back to work on it last saturday I notice that non of my machine definitions, nor the custom post processor for the dif. machines were there any more.

 

My question is: along with the *.pst, *.txt and *PSB all I need to bring to the new station are the *.MMD, *LMD, *.control.

 

Also even when this computer is much more powerfull I was having poor graphic performance when translating, rotating, backploting and verifying. Any input on this item will be helpfull also.

 

Thanks

.kmp - This file controls your custom keymap settings

 

.mtb - This is your toolbar states file.

Hey Juan,

have you updated your drivers for your card? As the previous post said, what do you currently use?

[Colin Gilchrist]

Juan,

 

Depending on which graphics card you have you probably do not need to change the drivers. You just need to configure them properly. Let us know what you've got.

 

Thanks,

I did a quick search for the graphics and it got fixed by checking Disable the front buffer and Disable hardware acceleration. And this is what the IT got me:

 

==========================================

This computer has an ATI FireGL V5200 PCI-Express Video Adapter in it, which should more than suffice for the CAD and CAM applications we will be using for the foreseeable future. It has 256MB of on-board memory and an on-board cooling fan. It is Open-GL compatible.

 

I have installed AutoCAD LT 2007 and SolidWorks 2007 both with the latest Service Packs. I have also installed MasterCAM X2, Mill Level 3, with the Solids Add-On, Catia V4 / V5 Translator, and Pro-Drill Add-On. Documentation on how to use these new features are located on Juan's desktop when he logs into the computer.

 

The computer has two 74GB hard drives. The C: drive is where all the OS and application files are installed. I would recommend that all drawings and other data created using any applications (that you do not store on the network) be kept on the D: Drive. This will allow for more free space on the C: drive, which the OS uses for Virtual Memory. The more free space available, the more space WinXP can allocate for Virtual Memory.

==============================================

 

About the keymaping I just did'em all again, but not to big deal.

 

Thanks guys.
