Hi Team, I have installed the latest RC of chimerax on a windows box running v10 Pro. The box has an Nvidia RTX6000 GPU card as well. I have updated the Nvidia drivers to the latest version yet when I start ChimeraX, i see the following error message - ChimeraX requires OpenGL graphics version 3.3. Your computer graphics driver provided version 3.0 Try updating your graphics driver. Nvidia driver version - Version: R510 U6 (512.78) WHQL; Release Date: 2022.5.16; Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit, Windows 11 Do you guys have any suggestions for trouble shooting?

Yes, something odd is going on. It sounds like it should work. You can double check that the graphics driver is installed by running the dxdiag program that comes with Windows, and looking at the Display tab. dxdiag also has a button to "Save All Information". Please click on that and send me the resulting text file, usually dxdiag.txt. But that doesn't tell us about any issues with the OpenGL part of the graphics driver. For that, please download https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/gregc/wglinfo.exe, run it inside a terminal/command window, and send me the text output. wglinfo prints out all of the OpenGL options supported by your graphics driver. Another thought, does your Windows box also have integrated graphics? Make sure your display is connected to the Nvidia card. Best, Greg On 5/21/2022 9:47 AM, Pranav Shah via ChimeraX-users wrote:
