I just was curious, because i remembered, that i had CB-EMU working on my EeePC 1000h (2 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD, Win 7, now Win10) and i found that GDI is working too (didn't try the other options)
Yes, GDI is the oldest and simplest method and should in fact work on ALL Windows versions and graphic cards (it's also the slowest one, but graphic speed is not needed for a rather static chess board display).
For Direct3D and OpenGL you need special Windows drivers and/or support from the graphic card (I've never heard of BGFX before), on my notebook here (Windows 10 64bit) all 4 options are working.
