I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 laptop

with Nvidia 1650 gpu and AMD Ryzen 4800h

I tried downloading Opengl32.dll from the website and pasting it into C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-21\bin

Update java version to jdk-23 and again paste Opengl32.dll onto the bin folder

Update my graphics driver to game ready driver 565.90

Tried Latest Studio Driver as well

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    1

    Click your Start Button, then just type dxdiag and press Enter.

    On the resulting DirectX utility, please provide a screenshot of the Display tabs.

    2

    Open the Settings App, then go to System - Display - Graphics, is that game set to run on the Nvidia graphics option in there?

    Thank you for the screenshots, that indicates a problem with the Nvidia drivers.

    Completely remove the current Nvidia device driver using the widely available free DDU utility, then restart your PC and go to the Nvidia website to download and install a couple of slightly older version of the Nvidia device driver to find a stable version.

    Do not use a Studio version of the drivers, they are untested and can be unstable.
