    Description

      Intel Mobile Intel 945 Express, latest driver v8.15.10.1930. Running on Acer Aspire One mini laptop, Intel Atom processor, Windows Ultimate 32 bit.

      App crashes on startup. Suspect OpenGL driver was selected, but can't confirm.

      When app forced to use AGILE library, startup results in runtime error, with dialog complaining of likely graphics driver issue, even though DirectX 11 was installed.

      Starting app forced to use soft opengl, the app starts and runs fine.

      Two concerns here:

      1. Should chipset/driver be blacklisted for OpenGL?
      2. Why didn't startup succeed using ANGLE when DirectX 11 was available?

      Sorry I don't have either the crash details for OpenGL, nor a screenshot of the error dialog for ANGLE.
