My old PC died kind of unexpectedly...it was a P4 3 GHZ with XP and 1 gig of RAM.  Went to Fry's and bought a new one...on a budget due to a baby on the way and a new house I just bought...so I didn't buy a high end PC, but bought an HP M7760n Media Center with Vista.  It has a Dual Core E6400 with 2 gigs of RAM...

Yes, it has Vista Premium.

And it renders Vue scenes (Vue 6 Studio beta) 4 or 5 times faster than my old PC...and Vue installed easily.  More stable, too.

But...the opengl display for Vue doesn't work too well.  Due to my budget constraints, I bought a PC with integrate graphics..."Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950."  It doesn't recognize the card, so it switches over to a default software emulation of Opengl...which doesn't work well at all.  NOT switching to this emulation leads to a black rectangle on my screen, and a non-responsive real-time preview...

Any ideas on how to fix this?
