I have a very annoying issue with Maya 8.5. It will randomly, continuously, freak out in the view port. The error occurs if I zoom or rotate around the viewport. It seems to continuously ‘snap’ back to the start of my zoom or rotate. I can correct it by double tapping space bar, so it’s not a serious error, however it occurs very frequently and makes the viewport unusable while it is in effect.

Are u using Linux or OSX??
The problem start when u just install maya or before was good??

Any help would be great, as installing the Service Pack did not help at all.

It has to do with a glitch in the NVidia Geforce/Forceware drivers. The options you have is:

- Roll back your drivers to the Nvidia Certified drivers for maya (8.0) http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_20010601_2940.html
- Buy a Quadro
- Or do something so you can use the Quadro Drivers (more I will not say about this since I don’t know if it is legal)

Most people also seem to think that this problem is not adressed on purpose by Nvidia because Maya is only Certified to run on Nvidia’s Quadro’s or ATI/AMD’s FireGL’s.
