If I remember correctly, there have been reports that VPython works on Windows 8, so that wouldn't seem to be the problem. Some suggestions: (1) Update the graphics driver (though with a brand-new tablet this shouldn't be an issue). (2) Try running from the command prompt, which sometimes gives additional information: cd Python27\Lib\site-packages\visual\examples C:\Python27\python bounce2.py (3) As suggested in the download page at vpython.org, "In the folder C:\PythonNN\Lib\site-packages\vis, edit the file site-settings.py to disable the use of shaders." --047d7b2e0873e03e6704edbf8d05 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div class=3D"gmail_extra">I have no idea.
