    Hi,

    I recently updated my graphics card, an AMD Radeon 6500, updated to Catalyst Control version 12.8.
    before this update everything was working fine, and now when I load C4D the interface windows are black.
    I googled around and a lot of people were saying to change the OpenGL settings and it was fine.
    Well I tried this and it made the screen visible but it made the animation speed very laggy and the Dynamic setting of my animation weren’t working as they had previously.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks

    Nick

    Nor do I, I’m used to Macs.
    I’ll try it again in the morning, but i don’t think it’ll work any better then.

    Ok, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start button
    2. Right click “My computer”
    3. Click “Manage”
    4. When the window pops up, on the left side at the bottom choose “Devices”
    5. Expand “Display Adapters”
    6. Right click your video card, and click “properties”
    7. Click the “Drivers” tab
    8. Click “Roll Back Driver”

    This should help you out, if not, let me know, ok?
