This is how I fixed this problem:
Right Click > Properties > Settings > Advanced > Intel(R) Extreme Graphics > Graphics Properties > Open GL > Flipping Policy > Flip (not Blit).

It should be one of the tabs at the top of the window.

The tabs at my graphics controller properties are Devices, Color, Schemes, Hot Keys, Rotation, and Information. I dont see an Open GL...

Then that might be your problem. You need open GL 9.0 or higher installed for the game to work.

Sorry, I don't have a link. It should have said it needed to install it when you first installed the game. If you have any saves, back them up, then uninstall the game and reinstall. It should give you the option to install it.

and as a note, OpenGL is only on GL 2.0 right now. :^:

Then I must be thinking about a different program... it might be directX....

When you're talking about a solution like the one The Doctor mentioned, those can give clues to a solution (lower your graphics settings), but shouldn't be taken as a specific solution unless you have the exact same hardware.

Most games use DirectX, not Open GL (at least not directly). Open GL is a lower level interface typically included as part of the video card drivers. So let's stop chasing this wild goose.

You really need to go back to the basics on this. Start with the link Redhawke posted. We need specific info on your system - hardware, os version, background running apps, etc.

You should still post your specs anyay. I got yelled at once for not doing so even though I stated that everything met requirements: you can still miss something.
