No Gameplay Graphics - vannes1823 - 11-04-2011

I've been looking over the threads for the past couple of hours, and I know a lot of people have the same problem, but I can't figure it out. Everything seems fine until I get into the gameplay--I have the subtitles and all the audio, but no visuals other than the journal/momentos/etc. Here's what I have:

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
Dell Inspiron N7110
Intel Core i5 -2410M CPU @2.3GHz
Intel HD Graphics 3000

I have been to the Intel driver downloads page, but everytime I attempt to download the latest driver and run it, and error message appears saying that the driver being installed is not validated for my computer.
Help please?

I've looked on that thread before. It sounds like I need to update my driver, but everytime I try to download the latest drivers, I get an error message. I go to the Intel downloads page, select the Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit operating system, and then select the most recent driver. I then click download. Then it asks me whether I'd like to run or save it--I've tried both. Each time, whenever I go to install the driver, I get an error message with the following:

"The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer. Setup will exit."

This is where I always get stuck...

Ah, nevermind, it's working now! I had to go to the Dell site and download the drivers from there!
