Try disabling CMAA in 3D of Intel HD Graphics Control Panel. I got this problem many times when I play games with CMAA enabled.

Thanks for the response UnluckyGod, I should have mentioned that had be done, and did not help.

Last night I removed and reinstalled the graphics driver

also changed Custom Settings to: Application settings and Driver settings

and this morning after doing the Microsoft Jigsaw puzzle for 30 minutes, it Failed again and closed the program.

I don't recall this happening a few weeks ago and I'm wondering if some microsoft update has not caused this problem.
