Hello everyone,
Here's the problem I have with Foxit Reader, a PDF viewer (like Adobe Reader, but lighter and faster): for some files, it shows me the following error, apparently related to the graphics card or the Windows driver of the graphics card:
Here are my specifications:
Computer: Packard Bell, Multimedia 6500
RAM: 256 MB
Graphics/Video Controller (non-AGP): 3dfx Voodoo 3 2000
Hard Drive: 10 GB
Operating Systems: Windows 98 SE - Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
The 3dfx driver is up to date and I use Foxit Reader because it's lighter and faster than Adobe Reader.
What can I do to resolve this issue? I should note that this doesn't happen for all PDFs (maybe the more complex ones?).
Thank you.

Hello
FoxitReader has trouble with "large" PDFs like plans for example.
Maybe your problem comes from there ;-)

Well no, precisely, these PDFs are not large. I rather have the impression that it's due to the complex layout... or not (if you navigate with your hand by moving the mouse up and down, it often crashes even if it doesn't crash upon opening).
So there might be mismanagement of the graphics card.
What do you think? The drivers are up to date, after all.
