W7 on W7 OpenGL question
Posted: 27. Jul 2013, 01:32
Hello!
Can't find similar topic so:
Running W7 pro x64 host and x64 home guest.
With Aero enabled, starting Draftsight (which uses OpenGL, but can't find confirmation) disables Aero.
It's re-enabled after closing Draftsight (with whole screen displaying red color for a moment).
Issues is present in 4.2.12, 14 and 16 with ver 16 displaying red screen much shorter than previous versions.
Any thoughts?
Thanx!
Edit:
well, didn't think it was important since problem is present in different HW configurations but still:
Host:
3930k, 32 GB ram, 7950+7750 VGA, 2xSSD, 2xHDD RAID 1, HDD, 3XMonitors, keyb and mouse.
HOST OS is W7 x64 pro SP1, updated, no bloatware, just 5-6 programs used daily.
Guest(s) is (are) W7 x64 Home Premium SP1, not updated (since I suspect one of updates thrashes perf but can't pinpoint).
2D and 3D acc is enabled with 256 MB.
GA before .16 worked better if only 3D acc was enabled, but .16 has no such problems.
Draftsight (CAD application) runs very well when basic 3d is installed. With .16 GA runs great even with Advanced 3D driver, but Aero problem is present.
Again guest GPU acc in browsers must be disabled because windows is blank otherwise. Tried on Chrome and Maxthon. Problem is the same regardless of GA version. Not terribly important ...
NOT a deal breaker but it would be nice to have Aero with OGL active ...
