      For some reason after trying to change profile, the whole bottom side of the launcher glitches out, this does seem to just be a visual glitch since i can press the play button where it should be.

      Mod note

      This issue is caused by some compatibility issues between Windows Direct 3D and Java Swing.

      Workaround
      Can be fixed by setting the envrionment variable J2D_D3D to false :

      1. Open an admin console
      2. issue the command setx /m J2D_D3D "false"

      See also http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/2d/flags.html

      d3d
      Intended use: To turn off the Java 2D system's use of Direct3D.
      Introduced: 1.4.1_02
      Equivalent environment variable: J2D_D3D
      How to use: On a small subset of Windows 2000 systems with buggy Direct3D drivers, the use of Direct3D can cause a system crash. To turn off the use of Direct3D, set this property to false:

      -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false

      If problems persist, try setting the ddoffscreen property to false. If that doesn't solve the problems, try setting noddraw to true.
