Operating System Dependent & Miscellaneous Issues

The following limitations/caveats are still being investigated. Autodesk has not identified the

precise combination of factors involved. Please refer to the “Release Notes” for further details

on known issues with Maya.

Limitation / Caveat

Bug Number OS Description / Workaround

284763 Windows Vista When working in the Paint Effects Panel, you may notice

that the display does not refresh properly. This may

include multiple copies of brushes being seen, or paint

effects strokes not updating/disappearing after a new

stroke is drawn.

277831 Windows Vista The NURBS texture placement window may draw

incorrectly and/or result in other redraw artifacts.

Notes on Operating Systems

•Maya 2009 has not been qualified on Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 3.

•Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (SP2). After installation of Service Pack 2,

Maya or its component programs may not launch successfully. If this occurs, you may

either unblock the program via the Windows Firewall Security Alert dialogue, or add it

as an Exception in the Exceptions Tab in the Windows Firewall dialogue box. For more

information, please see the Microsoft Update at:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=842242&product=windowsxpsp2

•Autodesk is aware of a problem whereby the system can pause or temporary hang

when some of Maya’s toolbar menus are being triggered. Should you encounter this

problem, please send a message to me.3d.qualification@autodesk.com.

•We do not recommend saving data directly from Maya to NFS or Novell Netware or

other remote mounted file systems. We have received several reports of data

corruption when saving in this method although we have been unable to reproduce

this. We strongly recommend that you save the files locally and then copy the data to

the mounted storage system.

•If the Maya tear-off pull-down menus don't display properly on Windows XP with UI

schemes, set UI preference to Windows Classic Style. Start > Settings > Control Panel >

Display > Windows Classic.

•It is strongly suggested to select the global presets: “Autodesk Maya” in the global

settings under Manage 3D settings in the NVIDIA Control Panel.

•When installing the ATI FireGL drivers, an Audio driver for HDMI audio output is

installed by default, this may cause your current sound configuration to no longer

function properly. To avoid this problem, you can either avoid installing the HDMI

driver or disable the sound driver in the Device Manager.

Stereoscopy Qualified Hardware

Autodesk Maya 2009 Graphics Hardware Qualification for Stereo Support for the Microsoft
