OS: Windows 7 32bit
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7240G (Supports OpenGL 4.1)
Processor: AMD A4-4300M APU with Radeon HD Graphics

When I run Blender, small window with code opens and immideately closes.
Always.
I tried to --debug-gpu - again window appears and disappears.

Switching to fully guarded memory allocator.

It seems the AMD Radeon HD 7240G is a terrascale based GPU. Blender 2.80 and above don't officially support terrascale and as a result you may experience crashes like these. For the best compatibility, please get a newer GPU or use an older version of Blender (2.79 is a good place to start): https://www.blender.org/download/previous-versions/

For a list of system requirements, see this site: https://www.blender.org/download/requirements/

Please note that Blender now requires a 64bit processes, so if you go down the route of replacing your GPU, make sure you upgrade Windows to a 64bit version (assuming your processor supports it).

Blender 2.80 is also no longer receiving bug fixes.
