Hi Sean,

Looking for your GPU: Intel HD Graphics 520
it gives this intel webpage:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/graphics-for-6th-generation-intel-processors/intel-hd-graphics-520.html

with the latest drivers:
Intel Graphics Beta Driver [15.45]
Date: 02-Dec-2016 Version: Beta 15.45.12.4552 (Latest) OS: Windows 7, 64-bit*, Windows 8.1, 64-bit*, Windows® 10, 64-bit*

I dont know why this latest is 15.* and you are using 21.* versions.

If you search for "ig9icd64" on web some pages with the subject "crash" and "don't work".
I only remember to read here on KiCad issues GPU specific related with Intel GPUs :/ No other specific issues on other GPUs vendors.

If I had a computer with that GPU I could debug it, but it looks really some issue that only happen on Intel GPUs :/
KiCad 3D-Viewer is using old spec features for GPU, using a general OpenGL library without any specific vendor options. So it should work on any GPU with maybe 10's years old.

I will ask on the development list looking for someone that have that GPU to try to reproduce it.
