    Good morning,
    I am running a MacBook Pro with Nvidia graphics card. As Parallels, the graphics card is showing up as the Parallels Display Adapter. (running Parallels 10 with Windows 8.1, fully updated)

    I use a specialized specification software for the furniture industry, CET Designer, mfred by Configura. This program is a fairly sophisticated build, with an internal graphics control panel. When opening this software, 3D view displays absolutely nothing. The control panel shows the graphics board as 'Parallels Desktop for MacOS'.

    Even if I turn up the graphics memory, the 3D space displays no information.

    I have extensive experience with the software only on PCs, and I do know that without a dedicated graphics card, information will not show properly. I do not think this software is interpreting the Parallels card as a valid dedicated graphics engine.

    Can anyone offer any advice, I have a feeling that if the software within Windows were able to identify the graphics card, it would function.

    Thank you in advance for any ideas you have
