1) Recommend installing the latest Windows updates and patches. See in Microsoft Support
2) For the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable download, visit here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170
3) For smoother operation, 16GB or more of memory is recommended. 32GB or more of memory is recommended if you are using multiple software at the same time and/or dealing with huge and complex garments.
4) Marvelous Designer utilizes Nvidia CUDA acceleration technology for Marvelous Designer GPU-Simulation. So computers with only Intel Graphics or AMD GPU do not benefit from hardware acceleration that speeds up Marvelous Designer simulation. In a non-Nvidia GPU equipped computer, calculations necessary for Marvelous Designer simulation is performed on the CPU, and the visual quality of these results is the same.
5) For graphics card related issues, please see the following guide. In particular, please update your graphics card driver to the latest. https://marvelousdesigner.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/11966977419545
