Thanks if anyone can help me I run fluent6.122 on a PC with PCI-x video card which chip is Radeon X600 pro(ATI). When I try to display graphies, it turns the following error Error: Floating point error: divide by zero Error Object: () Graphics Device Information Driver WOGL v2.25 Window Size Color Planes 24 Double Buffer swap Z Buffer Planes 0 Gouraud Shading yes Hardware Lights 1 Cutting Planes 0 I test on the other PC (AGP card MMX440) than the display functions are doing well. Thanks for any suggestions!

The error is due to an incompatible video card driver. For W2000 or XP, please try the following: 1) Download the latest version of the driver from internet(http://www.ati.com under "drivers & soft-ware") 2) If this does not help, activate the windows driver by starting fluent like this: fluent 2d (or 3d) -driver msw. If this solves the problem you can set this driver as default for Fluent via environment variable:* Control Panel, System, Advanced, Environment Variables * Under User or System Variable, click "New" * In the variable text box type: HOOPS_PICTURE * In the value text box type: msw/win * Click OK
