Hello,

Our recommendation is to use ChimeraX instead of Chimera.  ChimeraX is our modern replacement for Chimera.  And while I agree that Chimera should work for you, we no longer support it.  That said,  I believe there are lots of Chimera users in China, so it must be possible to get it to work.  Perhaps you have a colleague that has Chimera working, and you could change the settings on your computer to match theirs.

    Good luck,

    Greg

Hello,

This is the first time I am stalling Chimera, but I meet the problem of starting the software. According to the Debug command, I have tried update my graphic driver, installed Gzip and tried different Chimera releases including 1.18, 1.17 and 1.14. However, the software still cannot be started. 

The content of  debug log is copied as following:

D:\Chimera 1.14\share\chimeraInit.py:99: UnicodeWarning: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal

  if chimera_env.get(e) == _original_environ.get(e):

initializing general preferences

loading Tix

initializing graphics

Return code: -1073741819

I am looking forward to any guidance or help for solving the problem. My graphic is NVIDIA Geforce 3050Ti and the opperation system is Windows 10. If necessary, more details can be supplied.

Sincerely  Appreciated, 

Jiarui Guo from China
