Hi George,
What driver do you have installed exactly?  A recent driver update for Radeon cards breaks Chimera but it was our understanding that the very latest update (Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.4.1 from 20 April 2021; Windows display driver version 27.20.21002.112) fixes the problem.

Hello,
 
I am installing chimera for the first time so have very limited experience. The error code -1073741819 comes up after booting. I have the latest driver installed on my graphics card (amd radeon 5600 xt) and have tried installing both the latest windows 64 bit release, and the daily build (may 20 2021). 
 
The debug log comes up with the following;
 
 
Cannot execute 'gzip': no automatic decompression of .Z files
 
initializing general preferences
loading Tix
initializing graphics
Return code: -1073741819
Press return or enter to to exit
 
 
Any help as to what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. I can provide more details if needed. Thanks in advance.
 
Kind Regards,
 
George
