We have a registry script that forces OSCAR to use a different version of the graphics engine that may solve your problem.
Download FixGraphics.reg, open Windows Explorer, navigate to where you saved the file, and double click on FixGraphcs.reg to update the registry. You will get a variety of warning messages from Microsoft about the danger of editing the registry. Go ahead and allow the registry changes to be made. Restart OSCAR and see if that helps.
OSCAR has three different graphics engines available -- OpenGL, ANGLE, and Software engine. OpenGL is the default but does not work with some older computers. (While you can set the desired engine in the Preferences dialog, in cases like yours you cannot get to the Preferences dialog!) The registry script forces use of the Software engine. Later, if you want to try the ANGLE engine, go to File/Preferences/Appearance and select the ANGLE engine. If it doesn't work after you do that, just run the registry script again and you'll be back to the software engine.
Let us know whether this solves your problem.
