Blender is moving towards usage of newer OpenGL ti enable some features which are not possible in the current one.

However, 9500GT doesn't seem to be too old for me, so please make sure you've got latest video drivers installed form Nvidia site.

If that doesn't help. please attach system-info.txt generated by older blender here.

Hi guys I have the save bug with AMD graphics, and it is not old at all.

2016-07-17 (1).png
Blender 2.77a-windows64

My system: Windows 10 64bit
CPU: AMD A10-7860K
GPU: ATI/AMD Radeon R7 Series (KAVERI SPECTRE DESKTOP)
GPU specifications: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2532/radeon-r7-graphics
GPU driver version: {F324069}2016-07-17 (2).png

upd: Apparently this was 'cause of my video drivers have updated to their new version. I was able to roll back to previous version of video drivers 16.3.2 (dated 3/21/2016) and now Blender run fine.
