I received this query from a client:

Last week I got a new computer and I uninstalled and reinstalled Sketch up Pro 6 without a problem.
But now it is acting rather buggy almost like it has a virus. I have tried reinstalling it again but no change…
Any thoughts?
(I am redirecting the client to this thread) -
Check all the video card drivers to make sure they are updated.
Also, make sure to test it on multiple models. If they are just testing a single model, thre could be a problem with the specific model
Thats a starting point I think.

Check the openGL settings as well. i think SU defaults to no hardware acceleration, so this could slow it down quite a lot.

After I started this thread I remembered that Hardware Acceleration causes Bug Splats on my machine. Every now and then SketchUp seems to switch back to it. (I remote login to my machine sometimes, and I think SketchUp sometimes changes its video settings when it notices this).
Last week, SketchUp started Bug Splatting, and I uninstalled it, re-installed it and was ready to cancel by demo the next day when nothing helped (I also deleted all the .rb files in the plugins folder). Then I remembered about the problems I sometimes have with Hardware Acceleration settings.
