Suddenly Oscar not working - Bubba45 - 03-06-2020 I got a new laptop about a year ago. Installed the latest version of OSCAR and it's worked perfectly since - till today. I launch it, it begins to open. I see the opening screen for about 1-2 seconds, then it just quits. I first tried reinstalling it - no joy. Rebooted my laptop - no joy. Then I uninstalled it, and reinstalled it again - no joy. The only thing I changed lately was my Windows 10 firewall settings. So common sense tells me to turn off the firewall and see what happens - no joy. Any ideas? Thanks. RE: Suddenly Oscar not working - Bubba45 - 03-06-2020 Crisis averted! I remembered that I also downloaded a new video driver. So I implemented the suggested registry change: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OSCAR_Team\OSCAR] "GFXEngine"=dword:00000002 And it worked! At least so far. I'll give it a week and if it's still OK then I think the problem is solved. Thanks, Jim T. |
