HD Graphics 2000 i5 2400s 3D display rendering glitch, pics

[idata]

I have the i5 2400s in a gigabyte GA-H67MA-D2H-B3 board. Trying to run J River Media center.

Everything runs ok, video, graphics benchmarks, windows experience index; but when I try to enter some 3D mode displays in the JRMC, the display is faulty. Full screen theater display uses 3D graphics, and is a blank (black) screen; small screen 3D displays only a corner of what should be rendered.

It has been suggested the 3D driver is the problem. I've updated the driver to the latest driver (...2321, as below).

Here's a discription, and the thread has some snips that show the problem:

I've tried switched to Vertex software rendering in the 3D panel, but that makes no difference.

Any ideas?

following is the system info from the intel graphics control panel:

Setting it to low resolution, seems that any anti-aliasing leads to trouble.

Surprising, since this chip is supposed to support this.

More info in the thread referenced above:

>>>

We have an H67 here now, and see the same issue: using AA (anti-aliasing) causes a black screen. It's not even possible to render simple text overlays.

The frustrating thing is that the driver is explicitly saying is supports AA in a call to CheckDeviceMultiSampleType(...). Even using 2x AA causes the black screen.

We're looking for a workaround, or at least a way to disable AA on Intel GPUs.

If anyone has a contact at Intel, we'd appreciate it.

I have submitted a support request to intel about this issue, and to gigabyte.
