WINDOWS 10 22H2 GRAPHICS RTX 3060 , I INSTALL AGAIN DRIVERS BUT THE PROBLEM SAME
I split this into another thread for the Gigapixel team to look into this. I see other users already gave you links to this, which has steps to bypass this issue: [RESOLVED by updating MSVC] - Click here if you get “Your CPU must support AVX instructions to install this program"
Hello!
Getting the latest build version for Windows 10 (10945.5737) is the usual solution.
If you’re already on the latest Windows 10 and still experiencing the error, many users have found that this C++ update from Microsoft resolves the issue:
Get v14.42.34438.0 from Microsoft
After the update, reboot the PC, and then test installing Gigapixel.
Open cmd.exe on your PC and use this command to determine your build version:
dir "%windir%\System32\DXCore.dll" & winver
Okay thanks for the reply and sorry.
It is a permanent problem of MICROSOFT WINDOWS, as it constantly seeks to make people buy new hardware and constantly puts restrictions on Windows systems which leads to the inconvenience of customers worldwide.
Therefore, this is not a problem created by TOPAZ, it is a problem of MICROSOFT WINDOWS.
I apologize for blaming TOPAZ and I want to be fair.
I can offer a workaround and something you should check before!
Verify Windows hasn’t decided to disable AVX for fun:
- Open Command Prompt (Admin).
- Run: bcdedit /enum {current}
- Look for “xsavedisable”.
- If it’s set to “1”, you’ve been blessed with a useless AVX block.
- Run this to fix it: bcdedit /set {current} xsavedisable 0
Reboot.
- BIOS Settings (In Case Your Motherboard Enjoys Chaos):
- Even though it’s a “new-ish” board, double-check your BIOS.
- Make sure AVX is enabled (or “Auto”).
- If it works now, great. If not, welcome to the my Circus:
Install a legacy version of the software (Windows 7/8 version).- Let it upgrade to the next version on startup.
- Perform another in-app upgrade to the latest version.
Congrats, you have the latest version through a gloriously cursed workaround
