EClark1894, you mean the graphics are built into the CPU?  If so, this could be the problem.  Blender 2.8 and above require a minimum GPU spec to run viewport operations properly.  When it was first released Blender 2.8 had a minimum requirement of a GPU that is no older than 8 years, with support for at least 1GB of Vram, and capable of running OpenGL 3.3 or higher.  Although your chipset could be new, it may not support the minimum GPU driver specs required by Blender because it is not a discreet graphics card.  However, the minimum specs are absolutely minimum, and there have been reports of some viewport problems even with those specs.  The recommended specs are a bit higher.  The recommended GPU specs for Blender 2.8 and higher include a graphics card with at least 4GB VRAM and 16 GB of system RAM.

Check to see what exactly your GPU capabilities are, and especially check to see if they meet the minimum or recommended specifications to run Blender 2.8 or higher.  Here is a direct link to the spec sheets on Blender.org:

I can't say for certain this is the problem, but if your system specifications (especially the GPU) do not meet the recommended specs, then we can be almost certain this is the issue.  Let me know if you solve it some other way, but in the meantime do some research on your system to see if it meets the specs.
