Black Eyes

Hey everyone. in game characters in conversations often have black eyes, kind of like Vector Hyllus. It happens very often. Here is a Dxdiag. http://hastebin.com/umazukusem.tex.

    I wouldnt be worrying about a screenshot , things like black eyes and the previous history in this thread points to gfx corruption and in this case likely driver related

    sometimes lowering the texture gfx can help with this, lower all ingame settings to low and turn off bloom etc and see if it still occurs , from there can start adjusting one setting up at a time.

Same place it mentions the 4100 it has this 

Note: PCs using a built-in graphical chipset are recommended to have 2GB of RAM.
Star Wars: The Old Republic requires a video card that has a minimum of 256MB of on-board RAM as well as support for Shader 3.0 or better.

Your card has 112mb dedicated memory , whilst the game may play with the shared ram it may not be trouble free, changing compat to XP SP3 alters how VRAM is treated so usually its a good workaround. (usually the textures will drop between high and low continually and XP SP3 compat should fix this)

Display Memory: 6222 MB

Dedicated Memory: 112 MB

Shared Memory: 6110 MB

Personally I would lower the shared video memory to a max of 4GB in the BIOS to free up a bit more dedicated Ram for the system.

How do you access the BIOS in Windows 10? I can' seem to find it online.

    From the manual here (page100)

    To start Setup Utility (BIOS), turn on or restart the computer, quickly press esc, and then press f10.

      It tried it with both shutting down and restarting my computer, and it didn't do a thing.
