As far as I know, HLSL is dependent on DirectX (v9 ?). I looked up the specs of the Intel CPU's (i58250U and i7 4790), and both seem to support at least DirectX 12 (not sure about v9). So (just guessing here) perhaps DirectX is not installed (correctly) on the failing machine ? You could run 'dxdiag.exe', to see if anything pops up. Also, you could run 'mame -verbose' to see if anything sticks out in the output. Sorry that I cannot be of more help.
