I have just found out that Chimera also needs OpenGL to work - and it works properly. So I do not know the reason of the problem.

RE: SAMSON crashes while opening pdb files
Thank you. Within the info about my graphic card driver it is specified that it supports OpenGL 3.3. Anyway I cannot use SAMSON on my computer. For some reasons it causes the crashes of my graphic card. Thank you for your support, but I am unable to solve the problem. I use different similar programs without any problems (Auto Dock, Chimera, PyMOL etc.).

Generally I am sorry for the basic questions, but I am the biologist, not the IT specialist.

RE: SAMSON crashes while opening pdb files
Dear @Admin
I checked my settings and everything was set as you suggested. Usually I try to use as simple graphics as possible. I am affraid my graphic card is not compatible with SAMSON. I have the most recent driver of my graphic card. -

Dear @DmitriyMarin
I am sorry, I have no idea how to check OpenGL. I thougt the info about this is within the application controlling the graphic card. If not - I do not know how to find it.

RE: SAMSON crashes while opening pdb files
I found this on SAMSON Documentation webpage (https://documentation.samson-connect.net/users/latest/user_guide_getting_started.html):
"Requirements
For running SAMSON, a 64-bit operating system and a graphics card supporting OpenGL 3.2 are required. Intel graphics cards may currently cause issues. For NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards an appropriate driver with an OpenGL support should be installed."
Should I install this driver? I have a higher version of OpenGL (6.14.10.9833). I am confused (AMD is the manufacturer of my graphic card). -
RE: SAMSON crashes while opening pdb files
My OS is Windows 7 SP1 64-bit, my computer is Dell Inspiron M5010. Yes, I can see the blue background. I did the test - the same effect: my graphic card crashed (info: Samson caused AMD driver of graphic card to stop working, but after a while it got recovered).

SAMSON crashes while opening pdb files
Whenever I open pdb files on my laptop while using SAMSON, the application causes the crashes of my graphic card driver. I have the ATI Mobility Radeon 550v graphic card with OpenGL version 6.14.10.9833. Concurrently I am using Autodock Tools 1.5.6. suite and it works properly, while performing docking of small molecules into protein structures. Can you solve my problems with SAMSON?
