I have tried 2 different drivers from lenovo. An older one from 2008 and a new one from 2010. After I installed the newer driver i received a gray screen once for a second and a message stating the the display failed to reconfigure. However I can't get it to do that again. I realize that integrated graphics are not going to run well however I should be able to run the game at low resolutions. I have tried several different configurations both windowed and non windowed. I don't think it is important but I have the vista aero visuals turned off also. I haven't tried disabling the security features of vista yet.
Thanks
Are you running the configuration tool itself as an administrator? Sometimes it has trouble saving configuration changes if you're not. In addition to unchecking the fullscreen box you'd also want to change the detail level box to Low and uncheck all the boxes for extra stuff like shadows and reflections.
How much video memory does that computer actually have? The newest Lenovo driver should work just fine.
Thanks I forgot to run the configuration tool as an admin. I works now.
I think the Intel GMA 4500 uses up to 512 MB of system memory.
Excellent, glad you were able to get it working, happy gaming!
