New Laptop presenting Graphics Issues

Recently got a new work laptop and I'm having some graphic related issues.

Old laptop was a standard 1920x1080, new laptop is 2560 x 1440 (running as 1920x1080 currently)

I've attached a picture of what's happening within my VM in my HMI design software. Certain components just fail to display. The objects that appear as green outlines are buttons/graphics/text etc.  I've tried reinstalling the software in the VM, didn't change.

I've tried some suggestions on here for other issues like disabling 3D graphics, but nothing is working.

I'm currently running the same software on my root machine in the meantime with no issues.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi GeorgeCostanza,

Do you know if this an OpenGL based app?

What version of VMTools are you using, and do you have any custom VMX config options applied to the VM?
