We are running Corel Draw on a computer with a FirePro w2100 graphics card. Everything was fine until after the Win10 Fall Creator's update. Now, Corel just crawls. Drawing, copy/paste, printing take FOREVER. I've spoken to Microsoft, who blames AMD, and AMD who blames Microsoft. I've tried the AMD "cleaner" to remove all AMD software and a few different versions of the driver, including the most recent but nothing works. I'm afraid of having to wait for a driver or Windows update to fix it. Do I have any good options?

  • You might experiment with turning graphics hardware acceleration on and off from the GPU control panel, or from Corel Draw, if there is such a setting. Commented Mar 21, 2018 at 22:01

    This sounds like a Corel Draw issue. AMD has had stable 1709 drivers for months. Have you tried patching Corel Draw?

These ideas comes to mind

  1. Call Corel and file a bug report with all the details you can provided.
  2. Get a copy of the previous version of Windows 10, and re-install that in the meantime.

AMD got back to me this morning and here is the fix:

  1. Launch Windows in Safe Mode
  2. Remove the previous driver using the Display Driver Uninstaller
  3. Install the AMD FirePro AMD FireMV Unified Display Driver for Win 10 64 bit (Revision Number 17.Q4.1)

  • As this answer was the one that solved the problem: would you mind tagging it as solution? that way, the question will be marked as answered and it won't spring up in a year's time as unanswered ;-)
