I may have found a good solution to this problem:Originally posted by Tim_LIVID
This is a strange problem that I have not come across before. When I press 'space' to go into the 4 view and then click in the persp view and press 'space' all I see is a grey screen. I can't see my model, no grid ... nothing.
The only way I have found to solve this problem is to quit and re-start Maya.
Please help if you can

Hi,
I recently bought a PixelView GeForce FX5700 and am very happy with the card except for one problem:
I use Alias’ Maya 5.0 Unlimited on my system and I find that with the FX5700, I get a viewport refresh problem whenever I switch to and from viewport mode (pressing the spacebar). This seems to be a common problem as there have been many mentions in various Maya related bulletin boards (I’ve included some links to forum threads for you to take a look at).
I reviewed the release notes for the driver release 53.03 but there is no mention of this issue. The only solution that seems to work for some users is to roll-back their drivers to version 44.03 which, although seems to resolve the viewport problems, has a negative impact on performance.
I hope that you could provide some assistance or pointers.
