Got the file down to 19,000 KB, but could not load it to the CAD BLOCKS area. It said file size was too big. Turns out I have used DropBox. I uploaded the file there. Now how do can you or anyone else get to it?

I'm going to place the model in the CAD BLOCKS area. The file is called Pontoon.dwg Looking at some of the other models of pumps I've done, they're around the 3,600 KB size so this pump model file size is a little larger, but I didn't think it was outrageous.

The file size for the pump seems overly large compared to your entire drawing 3D drawing file size don't you think?

I am not making use of clipping plane. I actually never have. File size of the pump drawing is 4,210 KB. File size of the drawing it is being inserting it into is 22,060 KB. I'm checking with our IT group regarding your questions about the graphics card/chip. I don't use DropBox. Can I attach the 22,060 KB file here?

Can you provide a copy of the drawing via DropBox? Someone here could take a look at it and see if they see the same thing happening as you do. It doesn't have to be the entire drawing; just enough to visualize the problem.
What is the file size for the 3D pump drawing?
What is the file size of the drawing you are inserting it into?
Is it just the one insertion?

What are the specifications on your system? Maybe it is a graphics related problem.
Is hardware acceleration enabled?
Are you utilizing clipping planes?

Yes, inserted as a block, not xref'd. The block is a separate 3D .dwg file I created. I ran the Recover and Audit commands on that file and it reports back that no errors are found.
