Orcad Layout 16.2: very slow when refreshing the screen with windows 7

Hello.

I use Orcad Layout 16.2 with Windows 7 64 bits PRO,  it's very slow when refreshing the screen, althought with the same PC I use PCB Editor 16.6 without problems.

Thanks for your help.

    Any Windows 7 is not a supported environment for OrCAD Layout, so you may, or may not, get anything. You don't say "what" you are refreshing, if "everything" is being refreshed, the issue might be down to the Copper Pour draw width, settings less than 5 thou, 0.127mm, are likely to cause performance and drawn detail issues in OrCAD Layout.
