Hi guys,

another Windows 8.1 issue here.
I reinstalled my OS, having clear Windows 8.1 installation now and suddenly run into problems with GP4 SlimTex. It refuses to run saying Unable to create Direct3D device. It worked well before OS reinstalling - previous one was Windows 8.1 too but upgraded from Windows 8. I checked dxdiag and it says my Direct3D is enabled. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!
