Hi there

Recently the practice bought me new computer (HP XW4600 Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz 4GB DDR2-800 ECC 500GB SA)

With HP ATI FIRE GL V5600 512mb PCIe Graphics, graphic card.

 The problem is that when working with shadow (for instance: on file size = 10,024 KB)

The time it take to do Zoom All to Fit is at least 39 seconds, if I open the same file with my old computer it take only 2 seconds, it seems to me that it is wrong.

So what is wrong?

Is Open GL turned on?

I'm not a big fan of ATI video cards.  I stick to Nvidia.
