    What is "Vulcan" Run Time Libraries?

    Vulkan is an 3D graphics API developed by the Kronos Group, who are also responsible for OpenGL. Originally named
    OpenGL-Next, Vulkan represents the future of platform and vendor neutral high-performance 3D graphics and is the next-generation successor to OpenGL.

    In short, it does the same thing as OpenGL or DirectX, but in a manner that allows for a higher level of efficiency and better gaming performance with lower-level access to graphics processors, much the same as found in DirectX 12 and Apple's Metal API.

    BLACK SCREEN AFTER INSTALLING WDDM INTEL DRIVER

    I think your problem is that Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 3150 is not supported on Windows post Windows 7. There are no official Intel drivers available for Windows 8, 8.1 or Windows 10.

    This would also explain why accessing remotely works as that would use the graphics card on the remote system . . .

    I guess this is for built-in Intel GPUs right? Great news anyway. Vulkan is nice.
