Try opening the AZW3 in the ebook editor, the EPUB too.

It may help if you are able to update your video driver.










Edit: Just wondering what this has to do with conversion?

As I already posted, I'm Sgt Schultz on Amazon, maybe others can fill in the blanks.

Last night I updated Windows 10 to the currant version on my Microsoft Surface. Then I fired up the version of Calibre (3.32) (64 bit) that was still on the Surface and switched the Library to my backup of my Calibre Library (2-7-2020) that I've been using. I then viewed my most recent ebooks (azw3) and my oldest books (mobi and epub). I encountered no problems with any of them. Those same ebooks on my current HP laptop from this same Library failed as I've previously described here.
