watchout 5 - windows 10 Watchout version 5.5.2 with windows 10

[diskin]

Hello,

Can version 5 work with Windows 10?

I've installed a new system for my client.

I get an error (picture attached) when I go Online with Production software.

All screens on the display system are black.

No. Windows 10 was introduced AFTER WATCHOUT 5 went end of life. so WATCHOUT 5 was never tested or adjusted for Windows 10. 
While I have run WATCHOUT 5.5.2 Production on Windows 10 Pro, I have never tried WATCHOUT Display (my win 10 laptop was working with WATCHPAX running v5.5.2). I am not surprised it does not work, I would not try it with WATCHOUT Display. But you may look at gpu settings to see if your error could be corrected. I was using a laptop with a dedicated nVidia gpu.

Anyone had any luck running production v5 on windows 10? I have been getting a lot of crashing when scaling, 90% of the time playback doesn't start until an update + offline and online, and freezing. (I am using a watchpax2 on the same version) chatgpt tells me it's a windows version issue, just got a dedicated machine to flash windows 7 embed just for production and see the results. just hoping someone had any clue.
