Look here, maybe you can find some help.
Unfortunately, Intel seems to play a bad game by refusing to update its graphics drivers... [:(]

If the version 5.4 worked for you, you could also patch the version 5.4 by replacing the [font=courier new]SweetHome3D.jar[/font] file found in the [font=courier new]lib[/font] folder of Sweet Home 3D installation folder with the same file coming from the installed version 5.5.2. If it works, About dialog box should display version 5.5.2. The only thing that you will miss is the Files > New from demo menu item.
