[IDV #VUV-175754]: IDV

Greetings Raghu,

You are still getting the directX error ( [Java3D]: Using D3DDEVTYPE_REF mode)? 
If you've removed the "-Dj3d.rend=d3d" option from the runIDV.bat file, then 
you should not be getting any directX errors. Would you mind sending me a copy 
of your runIDV.bat file?

Cheers,

Sean
