Hi All

I have played around with the gears example I found on the jogl wiki page. It works on a windows 7 machine with ATI graphics card but crashes the jvm on my intel hd4000 computer (MS Surface Pro). The error log is in dropbox here .

Thanks for the advice on drivers but since we're distributing a program used by a lot of people so I'm reticent to ask everyone using windows 8 with an intel chipset to switch from the manufacturers drivers. If the problem was confined to a ms surface pro that would be fine but it seems to be a problem with at least a few windows 8 computers with an intel hd4000 graphics card.

So is it realistic to think a fix is possible within jogl/java3d or is this an issue to address with Microsoft an Intel?

Cheers

Jamie
