Apparently any GLES3 Project i try to open instantly crashes and my windows shows me a small notification in the taskbar that the gpu had a problem and recovered from it, is there any solution to this?

Specs:
Windows 8.1
Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 2.3 GHz
ATI Radeon HD 5450
3GB RAM

use windows 7 for everything.

Despite supporting OpenGL 3.3 in theory, Radeon HD 5000 series’s modern OpenGL support is very poor. On such old (and low-end) hardware, you have to use the GLES2 backend to get something that displays correctly. GLES3 would perform poorly on such hardware anyway.

i seeeeeeeeee, thanks callnou

I get that sometimes on an 8GB Radeon RX 580.
