Hallo, I have a question about bad displayed grid on that notebook. I tried to download some new drivers, but it's the same. Have somebody the same problem? Is it a bug in notebook or in PCS? I have on the display two vertical zones without grid points.

Hello,

We have narrowed down this problem, and have found a fix for the problem.

PC|SCHEMATIC is not the only software company dealing with this problem in Windows Vista. Other companies have reported problems (Windows API: SetPixels) on Windows Vista when the systems is set up to a theme that is not standard on that particullar Vista edition. Users using Vista Home Basic edition might encounter the problem if they are using Windows Classic. Users of other editions (fx. Vista Ultimate) might encounter the problem if they use Vista Basic theme or Windows Classic theme.

We are working on a fix for this problem in PC|SCHEMATIC Automation, so that we avoid the Vista problem.
Please contact our support team (http://pcschematic.com/english/pcschematic/ELautomation/support.htm) for a program patch, if you encounter the problem.

 

Best regards,

Lasse Holm

Is Your Windows system set to Windows Classic Theme ?
(Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization).

Hallo,

Thank You for replay I'am really mad at it. It wasn't set Clasic Theme. I tried to set my Vista to Clasic Theme, but without success. (reset PC and so on) I set back  Vista - basic.

Hello,

The Theme settings was important for us to know because we have seen the "white stripes" problem with Classic Theme.

Please contact our support for solving this problem.
