Slow Screen Redraw

[Answers]

I having an issue with Filemaker 9.0v3 and the screen redrawing PAINFULLY slow. It's a portall with many rows. On the one pc the same exact database opens and displays fine, on the faster computer (faster processor, more ram, an NVIDIA geoforce 8500 gt monitor adapter)it redraws every portal row line by line... SLOWWWWWWW.... I've tried changing resolution etc. to no avail. Any suggestions, I'm thinking it has to be a compatibility issue with the video card. Any suggestions?

One issue: If you copied and pasted the portal from another layout without looking at the portal sorting, the slow redraw is sometimes due to FMP trying to sort (find the field through your TOGs if possible).

Hope that's the solution...otherwise I can't help.

That's not it, I'm using the same database on the another computer. I just recopied it and still SLOWWWWWWWW. In safe mode Filemaker redraws the screen fine. I tried disabling all startup items and services, and still slow & painful redraw.

Any ideas?

And I apologize for posting this to the wrong forum.

Is it the same version of FileMaker?

I'm curious to know if its might be related to the issues discussed in this other thread.
