Windows 7 Catia V5 R20 SP2 Issues

Post by DJB »

I am using a space navigator and I am was loving the product. I am working in Catia V5 R20 and ever sense we went to Windows 7 I have had issues. The device works fine with one session of Catia, but in most cases will stop working with multiple sessions of Catia. We are constantly opening multiple sessions to view different jobs and it is becoming really irritating when it stops working. I have downloaded the latest drivers and tried a few other things to fix the problem with no luck. Most of the time I have to restart the machine to get the device to work again. It works fine with one session, its always the multiple sessions that cause it to stop. I am ready to quit using it and that would really make me unhappy. PLEASE HELP!

Hi DJB,

From the description, it looks like something that only Dassault can fix.

When you have two or more sessions of CATIA running, what happens if you switch to one of the 3D mouse demos (Start menu > All Programs > 3Dconnexion > Demos)? Are you able to recover the operation in CATIA or does it always stick with the last opened session of the application?
