Blender 2.44 (for Windows) is toooo slow

Support Basics & Interface

Hello,

I have a problem with Blender 2.44 (Windows version).

My Blender starts OK and work couple of minutes just fine (fast). But after 5 minutes of intensive walking though menus and clicking buttons I getting very noticeable slow down. CPU usage gets to 100%. Any redrawing of the screen (even simple highlighting current menu item) takes 2-3 seconds. My video card is Radeon 200M (ATI Mobility Radeon 200). Any application using OpenGL runs a bit slower than DirectX9, but runs OK all the runtime.

Does anybody ever meet the same?

Thank You.

Its the setting on your card. Do a search here for ATi and slow. I think you have to turn hardware acceleration off.
