Has anyone received this error message?

Display Error
"An error has occured while drawing and the contents of this window.
This window shall be closed."

I am using 2008 - most recent build. Also had the problem in the first build of 2008.
Revit is locking up and never recovers and has to be closed down and all work is lost. This is staring to happen more frequetly and is happen in 'group edit mode.'

I'm sure the response is going to be its a hardware problem - I am sick an tired the answer "its a graphic card issue" and then told to test different ones. If it is a graphic card problem - I want a list from Autodesk of graphics cards and drivers that WORK with Revit -

They are all checked - It is impossible to work with out the Open GL - Files are too big

Do you have and extremely large AutoCAD files linked into your model?

No - there are only 3 AutoCad files - they are under 380KB, No linked revit files -

I also upgraded the driver for my graphics card; and it is still happening - at least twice a day. The latest crash gave me the option to choose another view - but once I selected another view it locks up and crashes - This has to be a Software problem. Also the report screen never comes up so there is no way of reporting this to Autodesk

I can not save the file after the "display error" occurs. Revit completely locks up an never recovers to a point where I can save the file. I have to close the program down without being able to save my work. The views that it has been occurring in are in the Area Plans and Floor Plan views. Please advise how you would like the file - It is about 70mb with worksets.
