Hi all, I receive back a "floating point error: divide by zero" when launching a graphical visualization of any kind of graphical data with Fluent. I'm running a 6.0 Fluent on a Intel centrino mounting an ATI mobility 9700. Any suggestion? Thanks guys. John Peterandrews

Try to change OpenGl options on your 3D graphic card (from your desktop "advenced options"). You should turn it to "quality". I had the same problem and now I fixed it!

Try this...

Type in the following command line when launching Fluent.... (go to start, then run, then type this)

fluent -driver msw

I had a similar problem...

Hope this helps...

I faced the same problem but changing the under-relaxation factors solved it.
