InteliJ doesn't run javafx applications: exit code -1073740791

I am using IntelliJ-IDEA 2016.3, and I'm having some problems running my javafx applications. Without any log messages or errors, I am always getting

Process finished with exit code -1073740791 (0xC0000409)

when attempting to run even the most simplest of applications.

For example, this is my main class

public class Main extends Application {

@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
    Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("sample.fxml"));
    primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World");
    primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 275));
    primaryStage.show();
}


public static void main(String[] args) {
    launch(args);
}
}

with the complementary fxml file:

    <?import javafx.geometry.Insets?>
    <?import javafx.scene.layout.GridPane?>

    <?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
    <?import javafx.scene.control.Label?>
    <GridPane fx:controller="sample.Controller"
              xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml" alignment="center" hgap="10"                 vgap="10">
    </GridPane>

Keep in mind this is the most basic example. I just switched my machine, and perhaps i have forgotten some extra configs..?
