See if you can monitor the memory used by the window as it's loading, if it's closing to desktop after the accept screen it's possible it's an issue with an addon or you're hitting the memory limit for POL due to the extra overhead. You should be good up to ~775-800MB or so.

Yeah it jumps up to the highest process on the machine when I click it, but still only at ~571. It might be higher because it closes so fast after hitting that accept button. I guess I gotta toggle all my addons to see which one is causing the problem then.

I'm let down. I clicked this thread with the expectation that it was about Windower and your mom.

silly question: do you have high dpi settings checked in windows for the windower shortcut?

We get this issue on our discord from time to time, its usually caused by dpi over 100% causing the game to try to display larger than it can.



If this does not happen to be the case for you, please feel free to swing by our support discord channel: https://discord.gg/aUrHCvk

Thanks for the dpi recommendation, but still no go. I've joined the discord, so thanks!

AW3821DW. Increasing the vram from 256 to 1024 in dgvoodoo seems to have done the trick. I don't know why it was so low, and 1024 is low as well.

I use the same monitor with no issues, vram set to 4k mb per instance and the only issue i sometimes have is the black zone glitch. Hopefully you're good now with your fix.

The blackzone glitch is most likely due to an HD version of Reisenjma or Jeuno.
