Title: CS6 64bit with Windows 8.1- Graphics Card Not working
Post by: Goofy on December 13, 2013, 13:41
Does anyone know how to get CS6 (Photoshop) to work with my graphics card? When I go under performance - preferences the entire box is grayed out for "Graphics Processor Settings"

I did all the upgrades on CS6 and check AMD drivers for my video card- all updated. Thus at at loss...

Thanks.

There is a list of supported AMD cards at the above link however if it did not make the list that may be the root of your problem.

Snip
Note: ATI X1000 series and nVidia 7000 series cards are no longer being tested and are not officially supported in Photoshop CS6. However, some basic GL functionality can be available for both these cards.

Depends on your card, you can add you GPU manually, I remember I had to do this to take advantage of the Cuda cores and GPU rendering...I had to modify a .txt document in the program folder

Yeah, I fear my ATI Radeon HD 4800 is too old...
