So yeah I built my new rig recently and now I'm running Vista (amazing btw) but when I go to startup a project in 3ds Max 9 all of the views are solid white. Now when I click on a single viewbox it's contents become visible, but the other boxes are still white unless clicked upon.

Now I change viewbox sizes alot and like to view my scene from many angles, and this isn't as much a problem as it is an annoyance. But does anyone know of a patch/fix for this? I'm sure it has to do something with DX10, is there any way to run DX9 momentarily or whenever I start 3ds?

Any help greatly appriciated in advance : )

What graphics card are you using?

And have you tried disabling visual themes, or tried running it under XP SP2?

3DS 9 does not work well with Windows Vista, there are many compatibility issues. Download the latest service pack, it resolves many of them.
