    My x61 runs Pro/E 4.0 perfectly in WinXP.
    But recently I got a display issue when it runs Pro/E in Vista or Win7.
    Everytime I try to assembly the parts together, after I press the "Edit", all parts disappeared....they will just show up when I rotating them...since I stop the rotating, they disappeared again.

    I captuared the screen as a video clip, you can see it clearly by the below link

    All drivers for Vista or Win7 have already installed to my X61, I wonder is there any way to fix this problem? anyone has the same problem as me?

    Please anyone help on this. That will too pity to switch back to WinXP just because of this issue.

    Sorry, I don't know anything about the program. It's probably just an application incompatibility with Windows 7. Are you using it's latest updates/version? There's also a chance it's a video driver issue, have you updated that? Try releases from Windows Update, Lenovo, and Intel; removing the previous version with each switch. And of course, try running in the virtualization based XP compatibility mode if you're running Win7 Business.

    Do you have access to their support center?

    All drivers already updated to the latest version.

    I am wondering if it's a defect of intel 965?

    have you tried pro/e 5? that supports vista/win7 according to the official website. not sure pro/e 4 supports vista/win7 though

    i think it might just be an incompatability problem
