I recently upgraded laptops, it has a dedicated AMD/ATI graphics card as well as an Integrated HD graphics adapter. After getting it all setup I tried to work on a Windows Phone app. Everything went fine but when I started the app on the emulator after the initial “Windows Phone” … “Loading” screen, the screen went blank as shown below
After putting this out to a mailing list I’m on I received good feedback from Rob Miles and Den Delimarsky that the issue might be this sort of dual graphics adapter configuration.
After a little bit of searching, I found a mechanism within the Catalyst Control Center where I could assign different modes to different applications.
So after finding XdeLauncher.exe at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v7.1\Tools\XDE Launcher I configured it to use the Power Saving graphics processor and life is good again (i.e. my emulator works great! 
) .

I had a similar emulator problem due to not having a WDDM 1.1 driver (desktop PC). I had to replace my video card.

Thanks! This solved my problem on my new laptop. However, I needed to use the path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\XDE.exe
ReplyDeleteThanks a million, saved me the pain of having to go through all the possible permutations where this is possible. I bought a new laptop and the emulator just wouldn't show up correctly! I followed your steps and everything's going on great now~
ReplyDeleteHowever, I'd like to know why can't I run it on the "High Performance" mode? Isn't it supposed to have better performance?
Thanks a lot! I was stumped for a long time, suspected something to do with the video settings, but not sure what! And yup, I'm also having that CCC! :p

ReplyDeleteit didn't solve my problem.. having same configuration but still getting the same blank screen :(
ReplyDeleteSwitching to either High Performance or Power-saving didn't help me. The emulator still remains a black screen. Is there any other way to solve this?

ReplyDeleteBut is it really essential for you to know the instant that iTunes or Adobe Acrobat have a new version available? Probably not, but the software programmer thought you would, so they're likely there anyway.
