Default "lazy movements..."

When I change view from 4 to 1 (0 key) and move the object, it's movement isn't smooth, but stepwise. Moving points is also slow and stepping. Same problem with Bandsaw Pro (very slow. Do I have a too slow CPU (Celeron 1,2G) or to little RAM (512) or what? It's frustrating and make tweeking difficult. Can anyone give me an advice?

It also could be a wierd OpenGL bug. I found that LW7.5 under an older version of the nVidia drivers used to exhibit similar behaviour. I also used to find that moving back from single to 4 viewports used to completely remove their contents until I actually panned one of them.

So, I'd suggest maybe updating your video drivers first...
