I have tried and failed several times to get Singularity to install on my HP laptop with Intel 3000 integrated graphics. SecondLife official viewer 32 bit works fine, as does Firestorm 32-bit, but Singularity gave the same installation failure message for each version, 64-bit and 32-bit, "Get a better machine, you pauper"
I have tried installing and reinstalling the drivers from Microsoft, Intel, where ever else i could find them. I've tried disabling the driver through windows update so it won't get replaced (this worked on my laptop but not hers.)
Ok so we have two laptops here, mine a gateway with a Core i3 3110m cpu and Intel HD 4000 graphics, minecraft runs fine on this after i disabled the windows update driver and installed the Intel one. And then we have her laptop, which has a Core i5 2430m cpu with Intel HD 3000 graphics. Minecraft will technically run on here but only the vanilla version, with just a single mod installed it chokes and throws a pixel format not accelerated error at me.
A hundred thousand results, a discordant cacophonous chorus of static that roughly says 'i didn't even install a graphics driver and now minecraft doesn't work': =minecraft+pixel+format+not+accelerated&oq=Minecraft+pixel+format+not+a&aqs=chrome.0.0j69i57j0l4.4320j0j9&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8
Afaik the lates drivers are causing it so you need to disable the auto update feature windows 10 has for graphic drivers and work your way down from the latest to the "not so latest" until you find a working one.
Now from poking around, according to the reddit thread the working driver is 10.18.15.4256 so based on the how to identify graphics drivers article i should then be using 9.17.10.4256 however the 9.17.10 driver does not go past Build 4229. Looking around at some other drivers reveals that none of the Windows 8 (not 8.1) drivers go past Build 4229! In fact Sandy Bridge drivers arent avalible for Windows 8.1 64bit and the 32bit drivers are also Build 4229! The Intel driver version 10.18.10.4276 would not force install either. And the Ivy Bridge drivers for Windows 8 (non 8.1) are not available past Build 4229 as well.
By doing some research on google I have found that the latest Intel drivers for Windows 10 for Intel HD 3000 graphics adapters do not support OpenGl which seem totally necessary for ParaView. In this YouTube video and the associated GitHub channel a solution is provided:
I know its an old topic, but I have same cpu (Intel HD 3000 + amd 6630m as gpu) and the solution proposed by @Sirius_Fuenmayor did not work for me. Intel HD 3000 is not supported on windows 10, but somehow I can run old versions of paraview on my notebok without any problems. Below is a version that still works:
Nevertheless:Many times the default gpu drivers installed by Windows 10 are missing many features. OpenGL support is usually absent, especially in older hardware. And if you are really unlucky the hardware maker could have totally deprecated your gpu from its list of supported Windows 10 graphics hardware.
My old Thinkpad T410 still runs flawlessly (with Netflix). Intel graphics does not need a proprietary driver, but I'd check if Lubuntu has the XCompmgr (the xfwm compositor) activated. The xfwm compositor handles vsync really badly.
I am not sure this will help at all but i had an HP laptop with the same issue. Although i later found that my model of laptop actually had 2 graphics cards, one for the on-board display which is amd radeon, then the video "card" that did the external display i.e. HDMI and VGA which happened to be the Intel driver i would make sure you have to original driver installed first then the Intel that's how i have done it and it works every time i do an OS refresh on the home laptop
