I have now filled in the system specs which matter.
Where did you get the idea that HW acceleration is automatically adjusted? I have not found anything from MS or any video card vendor (ATI in particular as that is what I have), stating this. Would have to get in contact with the relevant companies to get this information myself.
To the guy who asked if this problem is still occuring on my system - yes.
I am going to do a BIOS update very soon.
Has anyone resolved this issue yet? It seems that there a lot of us out there asking and I have yet to see a solution. I personally need to be able t access hardware acceleration due to the fact that have some software issues and programs that don't work unless you are able to access hardware acceleration. It's something that could be done on XP but now microsoft has to change things yet again. Have you ever tried to save a jpeg file from a website with windows 7? I tried saving pics but then I could never find them again and my HP help desk had no idea waht the problem was after hours and hours on the landline. Turns out you have to make the website your saving from a trusted site in order to save any pics and find them again. the only way I found that out was that I was just lucky and spoke to the right person. This is why making windows better is one thing, but if you want to make people happy you also make it similiar to the last version, at least not so different you need to take a course to know it. So again, does anyone have a fix?
I also have an ATI 2600 XT (PCIe version).
Do you have the "Catalyst Control Center" installed? Isn't that where you can adjust all of the hardware acceleration parameters?
Ap
I can't use mathcad (any version) 3D plots because of this problem, the hardware acceleration is to big and i can't adjust it ((( is there any driver or something that can fix this, i need it to be lower. i have ati radeon hd 5145 and windows 7 ultimate 32-bit.
