Not NVIDIA Issues
OpenGL Application Issues
The following are known compatibility issues for OpenGL applications developed under
Windows XP:
 Mixed GDI and OpenGL rendering does not work.
A number of applications use GDI to render UI components and object highlighting.
This is not supported in the Windows Vista driver model.
NVIDIA recommends converting GDI rendering to OpenGL.
The following are some applications that are known to have this issue:
• Maya 7.01
 Applications, Tools, and Benchmarks not Supported Under Windows Vista
• GLperf
• 3ds max 8 (later releases may be supported)
• CATIA V5R15 (V5R16 is supported)
• PTC’s CDRS 2001
 Front buffered rendering may be slow, especially when DWM is enabled.
Flushing the rendering queue while rendering to the front buffer may cause the
window manager to recomposite. Applications should therefore minimize the
frequency with which they flush the rendering queue.
Application Issues
 Softimage–The application crashes when thumbing the CgFX scene model while in
wireframe display mode.
 Solidworks 2009–Application profile is not shown in the NVIDIA Control Panel when
SolidWorks 2009 is installed.
This is an issue with the application shortcut.
 ArchiCAD–the driver crashes when navigating 3D shadows.
 ArchiCAD12–OpenGL speed is half as fast on Windows Vista than on Windows XP.
 CATIA V5R20–not all drawing elements appear if the drawing is created using
Approximate mode.
