    I figured this would be the best place to ask because im sure a few people here have a 7970m.

    To get straight to the point i am trying to get HTML5 to work with my 7970m. But if i manage to force chrome to run with it, it just has a black screen.
    This is preventing me from playing Runescape in HTML5. (Yes i know)

    Does anyone know or have a solution to this? It works fine in java because it is an actual executable that i can set to high performance. (javaw.exe)

    I looked all over the internet and i can't find a solution....


    After searching a lot more specifically(was such a pain)

    I found --disable-image-transport-surface.

    Fixes my issue perfectly. Now to use my GPU to its fullest and play some runescape :)
