Black screen when opening VITAL vst/vst3/standalone

Questions and Support
#1

Hey guys,
Since recently i am getting a black screen every time I open and close vital in the daw, with either vst or vst3 or even with the standalone outside of the daw. Basically screen goes black for a second like when you alt tab and back to normal ! its extremely annoying, havent found a solution yet on the forums…
I have tried :
Updating to latest version and very old version → didnt work
Updated my graphics card drivers
Obviously turned everything off and on again
No bugs with other vsts just this one !
Btw i am on win 11 :slight_smile:

Dang that’s unlucky, may I ask what daw or if there’s been a recent update?
For example I know FL users have been unlucky recently with this kinda bug

That’s what I thought until I read

EDIT the missing end t in thought was bugging me.

Ah rip, you’re totally right.

What are your system stats (cpu ram etc)? Definitely not sure what might be causing it :confused:

I can’t imagine it’s anything else than graphics driver or OS problem. CPU or ram problems usually manifest in substantially more dire ways.

So maybe rolling back graphics driver could help.

Actually, W10’s Snip & Sketch tool or whatever it was called blinks my screen black when I use its pen tool. So there might be some funny interactions between the software and GPU that do this c**p.
