Since the 1.15 upgrade my laptop was blue screening within minutes of logging on. After playing with my Preferences (on the login screen) - I can now stay on without problem. I suspect that the main change was to run in fullscreen, but I'm listing the other ones I made before since I haven't actually gone back and undone them.
- Run in fullscreen mode
From the Preferences Graphics tab, unclick the 'Run in a window' check box. Both 800x600 and 1024x768 worked okay for me.
- Setting in Graphic Detail tab
Sun and moon only
Terrain Detail - low
All Mesh sliders completely to the left
- Adv. Graphics
Max particle count 512
- Audio&Video
Mute Audio
