    I have had the problem and it was a Nvidia driver problem with one of the Windows 10 preview version and Nvidia Quadro 4000 device drivers I installed. The combination caused Photoshop to generate the message.

    Thanks, the fact is that I was running old versions of my GPU driver than I updated following the issue and the problem persisted. So far Win, Nvidea and photoshop are running up to date, also I tried to install Photoshop cc2016 and the problem appeared there too and it always runned fine.

    Photoshop on my surface works just fine.
