Black and blurry viewport

This is my first time posting and I'm really hopeful someone can help with this -
I have no idea how it started but I openned Daz Studio on Monday and saw that the viewport was black - not only that but the gridlines are leaving ghost traces as I manipulate the view. I see from checking the forums that I'm not the only one with this problem. I've tried every fix suggested for these other folks but haven't had any luck. I've uninstalled/reinstalled several times; I even reverted to a previous version of Daz Studio (4.11) and I'm getting the same problem. My laptop has an AMD card so the Intel graphics being primary shouldn't be the problem as outlined on a previous thread.
I put in a ticket, but no one's gotten back to me. I hope someone can help!

If you right-click on the desktop and open the Catalyst Control Panel, I think it's called, there should be an option to say whichj applications use the AMD GPU - make sure DS is on that list.
Thanks very much for responding! I solved it by going into windows settings and forcing the GPU to work with DAZ.
I appreciate your help!
BTW - here's the webpage that gave me the how-tos.
Thanks again for responding!
