check if you have your GPU drivers installed and that your GPU supports
opengl 2.1. If It's an old intel GMA, you likely can't run the editor.

Yeah, it only lists DirectX 10, no OpenGL (it's an old Intel G41 Express) I assume I would need a new video card to run the editor?

[misterborden]

Update: I ran an OpenGL test utility and it does support 2.1; but when I ran the rendering tests, it crashed. Sigh.

[reduz]

yeah old intel cards do not support the full GL spec or have really buggy
drivers on windows (some functions that should be there are missing for
example, leading godot to crash). These work better on linux, but only to a
point, not sure if much can be done
but as far as I know, the same drivers for windows 8 work much better

I updated the drivers to the latest version and still no joy. Looks like a dead end with this system. Thanks for responding.

I finally got around to installing a low-end Radeon card that supports OpenGL 4.1 and now Godot runs fine. Thanks.
