Sorry for the long delay, I missed your email.
a. I have tried to update my IGP HD-Graphics 4600 from Dell, but there is no newer version (I'm using 10.18.14.4432). 
    There is a newer version at Intel (15.40), but that one does not install (raising an error that either HW is not supported or a dedicated manufacturer driver is installed).
    The workaround is to uninstall the Dell driver, and move to the Intel one, but as everything else works fine, I'm not very willing to do this (also, this Windows 7 system will 
    be replaced in December).
b. The -nowgl option did not make any difference.

Will try to do so if I have time (not this week).

No difference.

Did not help, unfortunately.
