Hi,

I had a Radeon card that died on me. While I wait to try and get it replaced or purchase a different card, I am using the onboard graphics of my motherboard which is the Intel UHD Graphics 360. When I launch Houdini it shows up as you can see in the attached image. No menus, and several windows not visible.

What can I change to make Houdini useable with this setup on Windows 10 in the interim?

Thanks,

Adnan

Hey Adnan,

I don't know if this helps, but I find it always a good idea to rename your Houdini user Folder so Houdini creates a new one on the first startup.

Try updating the intel video drivers

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried them, but no luck. I even reinstalled the latest production build of Houdini, but the interface still looks like that. I hope to get a repaired or replacement graphics card. Whenever that happens, I'll try again. No houdini for now.

The only thing that worked, was once the damaged video card was replaced and returned to me, I put it back in the box and now Houdini looks correct and works as it should.
