OptiSurface Designer on Windows 10

Last Updated: 08 May 2017          For OptiSurface Designer V2.3 and up


Problem: 
My computer has updated to Windows 10.  Today I tried to load OptiSurface Designer but it crashes. 

The problem seems to be the graphics accelerator.  I turned it OFF (Tools > Options) and the program stopped crashing but it takes forever to calculate now. 

Solution:
We have some people running OptiSurface Designer V2.3.14 on Windows 10 and they haven't mentioned this problem.  It sounds like it could be a problem with your computer and drivers as you suspect.  

A web search show Windows 10 users are experiencing issues and conflicts with Nvidia GeForce Graphics hardware.  You might need to wait for a better Windows 10 driver from Nvidia.

If you've successfully installed OSDv2 on your Windows 10 machine but some operations freeze or crash, try reinstalling OSDv2 and try again.
