Intel graphics have long caused grief with the game. Hopefully, one or both of these posts will provide a solution for you/your system:

Thank you for responding to my post. Neither worked, however, I am grateful for you response. I just picked up an old HP tower running windows 7 and now I am back in the game. Thank you again for your effort to help.

I too had a similar problem with Windows 10, and when I switched back to Windows 7 (Win 10 was acting strange with many other applications as well), all the problems were gone. So, the actual culprit is Windows 10.

Will Links work with the latest update for Windows 7/Windows 7 Pro?

Please consult your router documentation or the router manufacturer's website to learn how to disable the firewall in order to test your connection.

As far as I know, yes, but it will help to "Run as an administrator" (and post here if you run into any other problems!

I believe you got spammed, Pete. The post you responded to is over four years old. And Bruce passed away a while back.

I hope Bruce appreciates his memory living on!
