How To Fix DaVinci Resolve Crashing Issue On Windows 10 Computer

=====================================================================================

DaVinci Resolve is a popular video editing software that has become the go-to choice for many creators working on both Mac and PC. However, like any other complex application, users may encounter various issues while using it. One such common problem faced by DaVista Resolves user's is frequent crashes or freezes.

In this article, we'll discuss some effective ways to fix the crashing issue with DaVinci Resolve 15 on Windows 10 computer:

Method 1: Use Dedicated GPU

-----------------------------

The first and most straightforward method to resolve this issue is to use a dedicated graphics card instead of relying solely on integrated Intel or AMD graphics. If your system doesn't have an NVIDIA GeForce or Radeon RX series card, consider investing in one.

Additionally, ensure that the latest drivers for both your motherboard chipset (e.g., Realtek audio) and Graphics cards are installed from their respective manufacturers' websites before running DaVinci Resolve 15:

* Visit Intel's website: 'Intel Download Center'(https://downloadcenter.intel.com/)

* For AMD users:

* Go to AMD's official support page for graphics drivers:

* Choose your specific model from the drop-down menu and click 'Download Now'

Method 2: Upgrade Your Computer To The Windows 10

------------------------------------------------

If using a dedicated GPU doesn't resolve the issue, it may be time to consider upgrading your entire computer to one running on the latest version of Microsoft's operating system – Windows 10.

DaVinci Resolve requires at least an Intel Core i7-6700K or AMD Ryzen R9 1800 processor (or newer), along with a minimum RAM requirement of 32 GB (64 recommended). You'll also need either an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti/RTX 2080 Super graphics card or better, depending on whether you're working in 4K resolution.

To check if your current machine meets these specifications, follow these steps:

1. Click Start > Settings

2. Scroll down to System & Security > About Your PC

If any of the above system requirements aren't met, it's highly likely that upgrading both hardware and software will resolve this issue completely!

Method 3: Update Graphics Drivers Regularly

------------------------------------------------

Lastly but certainly not least important is keeping all graphics drivers updated regularly! Outdated or corrupted driver versions can often lead to compatibility problems with newer applications like DaVinci Resolve. To avoid such issues altogether, follow these simple steps:

1. Press the Windows + R keys together on your keyboard.

2. Type 'devmgmt.msc' without quotes and press Enter key.

In Device Manager's window, expand 'Display adapters' section by double-clicking it once opened; then look for nVIDIA or AMD under that heading depending upon what brand you're using inside there - either way just right click anywhere within this area when mouse pointer hovers over any listed item (should say 'Intel(R) Iris Graphics 620' etc.) followed by selecting 'Update driver'.

-------

In conclusion, fixing DaVinci Resolve crashing issues on Windows 10 computers can be a challenging task but with the methods mentioned above and some basic troubleshooting skills should help you get back to editing your favorite projects in no time! Remember always keep an eye out for software updates as well since newer versions often include patches that address known bugs.
