How do I resolve "advanced graphics rendering error" prompt?

I recently installed the Feb 2015 commercial version of MATLAB with my work, but several local errors keep occurring, meaning I have the latest version of MATLAB of all my coworkers and only my PC is affected. The following warning usually shows up when I display certain images, plot data, or run certain scripts that have pictures:
Warning: MATLAB has disabled some advanced graphics rendering features by switching to software OpenGL. For more
information, click here.
When I click "here", it takes me to the "Resolving Low-Level Graphics Issues" documentation. So I ran
opengl info
and got the following:
Version: '1.1.0'
Vendor: 'Microsoft Corporation'
Renderer: 'GDI Generic'
MaxTextureSize: 1024
Visual: 'Visual 0x23, (RGB 24 bits (8 8 8), Z depth 16 bits, Software, Single buffe...'
Software: 'true (known graphics driver issues)'
SupportsGraphicsSmoothing: 0
SupportsDepthPeelTransparency: 0
SupportsAlignVertexCenters: 0
Extensions: {3x1 cell}
MaxFrameBufferSize: 0
So OpenGL is installed, I just don't know how to resolve my known graphics issues. It's not interfering with my work (yet), but I would like to know how to proceed. Thanks in advance

Do you happen to have Intel HD2000 graphics? That board does not support advanced graphics features.

On Linux "opengl hardware" could not be used.
But using "opengl('save','hardware')" and restarting Matlab solved it.
Thanks!
