osu! version: Stable/lazer most recent as of post

On stable you can hold shift while opening osu! to open a recovery window where you can change the render

On lazer edit framework.ini and set Renderer = Automatic and it should rollback to a render that is ok to use on your OS/Machine

holding shift did nothing and there is no framework.ini that i see in the local files

Edit the "osu!.<username>.cfg" file in your osu! folder in a text editor and set these lines accordingly:

CompatibilityContext = 0
CanForceOptimusCompatibility = 0

When you're done, make sure to save and close the file before trying to open the game again.

For a more permanent fix, please try reinstalling your graphics drivers.

^ for stable
