Jim, Can you tell us a bit about how you are running the IDV? In particular, are you running the IDV in a remote display scenario? If so, please run the IDV on your local machine rather than trying to connect to a remote display. Also ensure your graphics driver is up-to-date and that you have downloaded and installed the correct version of the IDV (32 versus 64 bit, etc.) https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/idv/current/index.jsp Best, Unidata IDV Support > Please forward this email and attached graphic to the IDV support section. > > > Could someone shed some light on this error message?
