I have a DELL E 6400 laptop. The graphics editor does not work (freezes). I tried on Windows x86 and on Windows x64. It makes no difference. Help solve the problem, please!
Under help there is an option to save your configuration to the clipboard. You may want to use that and post the information here.
Please be more specific. Which data is most important
?
It seems to have pretty old GPU https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-Quadro-NVS-160M.11908.0.html which barely supports OpenGL 2.1. I suspect it may be some kind of hardware/driver problem.
