Integrated Graphics

Okay, let me say it:

THEY SUCK.

They ruin a lot of games, make some refuse to run, or even make some games flat out refuse to install. I've had a few experiences with an Intel 915:

1. COD4 PC refused to get past the splash screen. I hit "Single Player" or "Multiplayer", it gets to the image of a soldier (Soap MacTavish?) and then pops up a console window and a error message about a driver.

2. Phantasy Star Universe is not advised to run on it. Sega says that unpredictable results would happen if I tried that.

3. Psychonauts Demo through Steam. At the point in the Basic Braining course, where the kid with the sailor cap says "CHARRGGGEE!!", it froze at "ARRR" with looping audio. I had to remove the power supply and battery of my laptop.

4. Mabinogi froze after first dungeon and lag in some areas. 'Nuff said.

Well, I don't have much of a choice. The chipset is stuck to the motherboard (Dell Inspiron B130). I want a new computer soon...Zakum2

You can still get a new graphics card even if the chip is stuck on. You just uninstall its drivers and get a new graphics card.
