Bios very slow with 3D acceleration since 17.0.0

Hello,

Since the update to 17.0.0 of VMware workstation the bios and boot menu became extremely slow.

The problem only occurs when I activate 3D acceleration.

Sometime it does and sometime it doesn't and I can't find the source of the problem.

I have this problem on all my VMs and 2 computers.

 

I've tried recording even if it's not very visible, but I'm spamming the direction buttons in the bios and the bios reacts very badly with 3D acceleration :

If anyone has a solution, thank you very much.

Thanks
Unfortunately I no longer have the installer for this version.

There have been 2 rare updates since I got this bug but none of them have fixed it.
