Im using mudbox 2011
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
Memory: 7 GB

Install went fine (supposedly) my problem starts when I try to do anything - no matter what I load or create: mesh - if I zoom out in the slightest, everything disappears, no mesh no grid - just limbo! I cannot zoom back in and find the mesh… If it is a crash its not a hard crash because everything is running not frozen - its just gone. Is this a display card issue? Not the strongest card I know but such a simple thing as zoom in/out? waiting on a new loaner card (Nvidia GTX 285) or plan to buy either ATI 5770/5870… Can’t see how this works on laptops (my MPB and others here on this forum) but fails on my desktop… BTW - select all and “F” will not find the mesh - its just limbo and requires a restart which starts the whole process over again…

Thanks for any help/suggestions
