Hi Jay!
This was the similar problem I had till I tried several times to figure out what next. Try to select the drawing in a/CAD, then go to file, export the file as acis or IGES or stp. then save the file. When you open GAMBIT for the new session, open now from the ACIS or IGES files that you saved your geometry. I hope it will help
