%%%This is most likely a graphical driver bug… So we need at the very least the exact model of or graphic card. Also pleas make sure you use the latest drivers available, and try our 2.69RC1 (http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.69/).%%%
%%%In fact, could you please attach the output of Help -> System Info (found in a text window)?%%%
%%%No reply in a week. Closing because of lack of information needed to troubleshoot.
Happy to reopen the issue as soon as more info is provided :)%%%

Same problem. Win 8 x64, Nvidia GeForce GT 645M and Intel HD Graphics 4000. Blender opens to just white blank window (cant see the menu or anything). Blender actually boots (shows) himself after like 10 minutes.
Some questions to @Jana_Tk:
This problem doesnt occur any more at my computer. Not sure why, my drivers been latest before also...whatever it works now.
Just to note the last:
Not sure if its optimus, cant find that anywhere at my pc but looks like this model is optimus... ive put this .dll there and run blender, it turned on fine but it was very slow (and its not using nvidia). When i deleted .dll, works fine (and using nvidia).
So i seems fine now, thanks

I have the same issue. Blender starts up with a white screen. I have an Windows 10, 64bit, intel i7 (1.99GHz), 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GEFORCE. I don't know much about computers, but the way that I was able to get Blender to work was to right-click on the start up icon, and choose "Run with Graphics Processor > integrated graphics". I don't know what implications this has on renders, etc., but it is the onl way I could get Blender to work.

I am having this issue too. I loaded Blender 2.8 then tried 2.79b both have a solid whiter box.
Win10 64bit Version 10.0.17763 Build 17763
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz, 3600 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
GPU GeForce RTX 2070 Driver 436.02
Never tried this software before and it's not a great first impression. Any help offered, greatly received.

I have the same issue actually on mac. And i don't find any solution for a year. Its a late 2009 iMac but it worked fine before it crashed like this.
The graphics card is: ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR3 memory
Thought I would update in case it helps anyone else.
Turns out my issue was being caused by a driver for my Veikk A50 drawing pad, which was also crashing some of Adobe's suite too. They have updated it but I don't know if it's fixed the problem (I just uninstalled it).
I would advise you to start uninstalling each of your drivers until you find the culprit, it took me a good 2-3 hours to isolate my issue.
Hope it helps.

The same is happening to me but with the 2.8 version (Windows 8 AMD-E1-1500 with Radeon (tm) HD graphics 1.48 GHz 64 bits)

If you have this issue, please open the file for blender and open it there.
