ArcMap options | Data View | Hardware acceleration, this is greyed out

AlexRice

Hi all, in ArcMap 10.3 the option in Customize | ArcMap options | Data View | Hardware acceleration, this is greyed out.

I hope to resolve this, because the map re-drawing is pretty slow.

* I do have a good graphics card (ATI Radeon 5770) w/ DirectX and OpenGL support
* I am not using Remote Desktop and have not used Remote Desktop

OS: Windows 8.1 running in Vmware Fusion 7.1.1

I confirm that accelerated graphics are working, using the freely available OpenGL Extensions Viewer.

The system also passes all rendering tests using OpenGL Extensions Viewer.

Any ideas why ArcMap thinks that hardware accelerated drawing is not available?
