So far found two:
1. win64_15.36.5180.exe did not work cause didnt meet system requirements.
2. igfx_win_101.1069.zip could not install because of black screen, installer
seems to rely on graphics card already running/installed, funny stuff ?!

Want to give this integrated gpu a try to see if VS code can run.

So far VS code shows black screen without a graphics card.

Bye,
Skybuck.

This is where CPU-Z is handy,

Googled for: intel icore5 Arrandale graphics driver

Arrandale is "codename" for this embedded gpu, found this, 'media driver':

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/49653/intel-core-i5560m-processor-3m-cache-2-66-ghz/downloads.html

^ Going to give this a try to see what happens, probably already installed, but ya never know ! ;)

Hoping for some 3D support so that black screens go away ! ;)

Bye,
Skybuck.

At least the VS Code problem was solved as follows:

Disabled radeon 5000 graphics in windows.

Ran VS code in vga mode, then:

Disable GPU acceleration#

We have heard issue reports from users that seem related to how the GPU is used to render VS Code's UI. These users have a much better experience when running VS Code with the additional --disable-gpu command-line argument. Running with this argument will disable the GPU hardware acceleration and fall back to a software renderer.

To make life easier, you can add this flag as a setting so that it does not have to be passed on the command line each time.

To add this flag:

Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
Run the Preferences: Configure Runtime Arguments command.
This command will open a argv.json file to configure runtime arguments. You might see some default arguments there already.
Add "disable-hardware-acceleration": true.
Restart VS Code.

Note: Do not use this setting unless you are seeing issues!
Editor#

Also add a comma.

Then re-enabled hd 5000.

^ did not require a reboot that is cool.

All of this worked.

I did also installed an intel arrandale graphics driver but it didn't seem to do much, maybe it allows this switching now to be done without a reboot at best ! ;)

Bye,
Skybuck.
