Windows x86 and x64 builds above version 1.3.6 not working on Intel HD Graphics 2000 #5722

I have a dell OptiPlex 790 with an onboard Intel HD Graphics 2000 graphics card and am unable to launch any version of retro arch higher that version 1.3.6. When I try to launch it, it simply says "retroarch.exe has stopped working"

I have tried multiple builds both x86 and x64 up to the latest stable release of 1.6.7. I have also tried the nov 18, 2017 nightly with no luck

The video driver is the default windows driver, since dell didn't release and windows 10 64-bit driver, however I have also tried installing the windows 8 64-bit driver and it also did not work.

Here is the verbose log output

c:\Users\jrbil\Downloads\RetroArch 1.6.7>[INFO] RetroArch 1.6.7 (Git a235c0b) [INFO] === Build ======================================= Capabilities: MMX MMXEXT SSE1 SSE2 SSE3 SSSE3 SSE4 SSE4.2 AVX AES Built: Aug 21 2017 [INFO] Version: 1.6.7 [INFO] Git: a235c0b [INFO] ================================================= [INFO] [Config]: Loading default config.

One thing to note, I have also tried the Retroarch 1.6.7 x64 msvc2010 build and that one loads, however it I try and use the online updater I can not install any core, they simply aren't available. I had a suspicion that it must be pointing to an invalid URL so I opened retroarch.exe with notepad++ and found the following url referenced at line 34024 "http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows-msvc2010/x86_64/latest/" This URL however doesn't exist and currently windows cores exist here http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/latest/ Not sure if this is a mistake, or by design? so currently the only the only way to install cores in msvc builds is to manually download them and place them in the cores folder

The only way that I found to get the windows 1.6.7 x86_64bit version of retroarch to run was to edit retroarch.cfg and add the following line video_driver = "d3d", however then you don't get the nice ui and other features.

it would be great if this could be fixed

please use the template to report bugs. I'll keep this open because it's serious enough.

For now, use the MSVC 2010 version

Please see here. I have the exact same machine and I've got it working by patching the manifest https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/4580
