How did you "switch back"? Did you format your hard drive, before you went back to a different OS?

If not, did you uninstall and reinstall Links?

Did you try changing Links compatibility?

Bruce. You don't have to, Windows 10 allows you to revert back to the original operating system 1 ( One ) time within 30 days of installing Win 10 - much like restore works on Win 7, after the 30 days is up it is no longer possible to go back & you can only have one go at it, reinstalling Win 10 for another try doesn't allow you to go back.

Cheers

Try reinstalling the 1.07 Patch & the Nvidia Patch ( even though you are using an AMD card ) and see if it fixes the problem.
Failing that you might have to edit the graphics card text, Links might be a tad confused with all the changes of windows flavours.
