So Photoshop has started giving me an error message on start-up indicating a problem with my graphics card (and disabling 3D features because of it). It says it needs more than 512MB of vRAM to work. Even though my card has double that amount.
A quick search on the web indicated that this isn't an uncommon issue and that I need to update the drivers for my graphics card. Which is odd because everything worked fine until about a week ago and I had made no changes to the graphics drivers, the O.S. or Photoshop. But I dutifully downloaded and installed the latest drivers for my nVidia 610 card. And it made no difference. After making still more unsuccessful attempts to get things working I broke down and bought a new graphics card. nVidia 720 series with 2 Gig of vRAM (and the latest drivers). And I still get the error. Re-install Photoshop. Same error. Adobe Illustrator runs fine and, more significantly, correctly recognizes my graphics card and the amount of vRAM.
