I’ve uninstalled the files you indicated, made the NVidia card the default processor and then installed the 1.5.3 version of the Studio – this 1.5.3 version is working properly. However, I am not able to update the program, when I check on updates it tells me updates are available – clicking on this brings up the Maintain Topaz Studio with update components checked and then a no updates available message. No indication of new versions of the software.
Sorry I haven’t been here. Christmas and New Year’s holidays plus a nasty flu bug have kept me from doing much of anything. I thank everyone who has contributed their experiences with this problem. Thanks to Topaz for working on a fix. I ended up uninstalling 1.6.10 and installing 1.53 which worked the way it should. I’ll try 1.6.11 and see if it works for me. Thanks, again.
For the record:
AMD-FX 8150 Eight Core Processor
