you need to check your video card against autodesk 'certified' hardware list, and or update your video card drivers.

Note this checks against a local file and not online.  It's entirely possible the card/driver combination is supported but wasn't available or tested when the product was released.  Even then, a lot of graphics cards will still allow you to enable hardware acceleration despite not being "supported".

Something else to note, is there may be conflicts between on-chip graphics hardware especially with laptops.  You might need to change power settings, or disable the on-chip graphics, or disable or remove any automatic switching systems (NVidia Optimus is one of the main culprits).

Of course, you might really have hardware that AutoCAD just doesn't like.

I have to check with Autodesk about that VGA Card.
