What is the procedure for disabling hardware acceleration in WPF? What is it exactly? Is it a Windows setting, a Visual Studio setting, or something you alter in the code of your WPF project? Will it affect only the program you're running or will it be system-wide?
That is a system wide setting, from the desktop, right click to bring up a popup menu, click on properties, and look around in there for the video settings to disable Hardware acceleration or that there may be a system tray icon for the graphics settings. This is system wide and not local.
