Well, I could imagine what the problem is - try the following:
1) start CB-Emu
2) right-click on any engine in the list and select 'Properties' in the popup menu
3) now open the tab 'Display': under 'Videomode' on the right side there is 'Auto' predefined, and I guess your Windows doesn't automatically select the correct video mode for your netbook
4) so try all 4 modes in this video submenu, i.e. select a mode, click 'Ok' to exit, and then start this module.

If any of these 4 modes is working for you, then let me know and I'll give you instructions how to change this automatically for ALL modules (else you would have to use the same procedure for each of them).

Tried out all functions, and OpenGL works perfectly. Thank YOU!!

Cheers,

Ok, I've attached a ZIP-file where I've changed all INI-files to this OpenGL video mode - just unzip it to your CB-Emu folder and overwrite all files.

Hallo Franz
Und schon hast Du wieder einen sehr zufriedenen Kunden mehr. Deine
grosse Arbeit müsste gesponsert werden OK, würde dann vielleicht
nicht mehr so viel Spass machen wie eine allsamt hoch geschätzte
freiwillige Leistung.
Gruss
Kurt

Aber das war doch eine Kleinigkeit, keine 2 Minuten Arbeit mit 'grepWin' zum Ersetzen dieser Option in allen ini-Dateien -
ihm hier zu beschreiben, wie er das unter CB-Emu machen müßte, hätte wesentlich länger gedauert.

Awesome! Playing the Conny on my EEEPC now. You are DA man!

I just was curious, because i remembered, that i had CB-EMU working on my EeePC 1000h (2 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD, Win 7, now Win10) and i found that GDI is working too (didn't try the other options)

But the N270 Atom CPU was too slow for most of the emulations (IIRC 6502 with 6 MHz was the limit, everything with faster CPUs had slow running clocks), so i removed it some years ago.

At least i can confirm, that it is working with Win 10 on the EeePC!

best regards
Robert

Yes, GDI is the oldest and simplest method and should in fact work on ALL Windows versions and graphic cards (it's also the slowest one, but graphic speed is not needed for a rather static chess board display).
For Direct3D and OpenGL you need special Windows drivers and/or support from the graphic card (I've never heard of BGFX before), on my notebook here (Windows 10 64bit) all 4 options are working.
