Dixel Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Well, you can always try this to make sure, then. Open regedit and go to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM.There, create a DWORD key named CompositionPolicy and set its value to 2. Install the driver via computer manage. After the display driver installs, reboot or restart VDDM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixel Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 There's an older driver exist, probably more luck with that one? Sorry, I have no link to 64bit.
