MADRIX 5 - How to solve Preview issues
Issue:
When running MADRIX 5 on an integrated graphics card (which is not recommended from our side!), the Previews for example appear with green lines or an "Invalid OpenGL" message will be displayed instead of the actual Preview.
Possible reasons for the issues:
- The Graphics card doesn't either meet the minimum system requirements for MADRIX 5 (OpenGL 2.1) or the graphics card driver is outdated.
- When using a system with two graphics cards, it could be that MADRIX 5 is not running on the "High performance" graphics processor.
- This is often the case for mobile devices such as latops, since they often feature an integrated as well as an dedicated graphics processor.
Possible solutions:
- The solution is to download and install latest graphics card driver from the manufactureres website.
- If you are running a system, which has two graphics card please make sure to always run MADRIX 5 on the "High performance" graphics processor.
