How can I run Creo 2.0 with my nvidia graphics instead of integrated graphics in windows 10?

I don't think windows 10 is officially supported yet by creo and I'm aware of that so before anyone goes on a rant about using an unsupported OS....

At first I could not get Creo 2.0 to run at all on my windows laptop, the application just opened with a black screen.

Then I tried changing the default graphics processor from my nvidia card to the integrated intel graphics.

This allowed the application to run just fine, however I don't have any of the graphics acceleration benefits.

So is there a special driver or anything I can do to get Creo to run with the actual graphics card? Do I just need to wait for an updated driver?

If it matters my computer has an intel 5700HQ cpu and an Nvidia 970 gpu.

    Hi Rod,

    I'm guessing you changed the config option graphics from opengl to win32_gdi, but since Windows 10 is still in compatibility testing phase, it's hard to say which driver version to use.

    What's the machine configuration you are using?

    Machine Type - Dell, HP, Lenovo??

    Graphics card

    Driver version

    Thanks,

    Amit

    Amit,

    Thanks for the response.

    I have now changed the graphics config option to 'win32_gdi' and that seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks for your help.
