Stu,

It is difficult to diagnose this problem remotely, but here are a few things 
you can try.

Option 1: make sure your video driver is up-to-date

Option 2: In your home directory, move the .unidata directory to .unidata.bak. 
Start the IDV.

Option 3: The IDV configures the appropriate amount of memory. In exceptional 
situations, the IDV may not start due to memory issues. In this case, please 
uncomment the idv_memory section IDV\runIDV.bat script. Change "REM set 
idv_memory=512" to "set idv_memory=512" Start the IDV.

Please keep us up-to-date on your progress.

Best Wishes,

Unidata IDV Support
