How to make this mesh display back to normal?

 

When I click Shaded elements and mesh lines, the meshes will become all black.

 

I've tried to reset Hypermsh setting back to default, but it didn't work.

 

Any suggestions would be really be appreciated!

    I just tried, zooming in doesn't work.  The elements are still black. I tried a simpler model.

    Are you sure your graphic card is found in supported hardware list for Hyperworks?

    Could your share the model? I would like to check that on my hardware.

    The graphic card shold support this Hyperworks since it used to work fine. I think I clicked some button, and it turned into this way...

     

    the model is attached (it's a  ls dyna file).

     

    Thanks!

    Unable to find an attachment - read this blog

    I don't know. Maybe the hardware issue?

    I use HW 2017.2 Windows 7 x64 with NVIDIA Quadro 2000M 2048M DDR3, laptop Thinkpad W520.

    Hi, I didn't solve this issue... I am not sure if this is a hardware problem as hypermesh worked fine when I installed it at the very beginning. But some time later, this issue occured
