Amnesia Crash after launcher

[TheBlastPassage]

I have the game set to all lowest settings on the Launcher and it crashes and gives me the BlackBox error reporter. I am on a laptop using "Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS,910GML Express" I found that out from dxdiag.

Here is my hpl.log:

I DO know that my OpenGL version is HORRIBLY outdated. But I'm hoping there's some kind of driver update for that.

No sorry it is not possible to run the game with that graphics card, it is too old and does not support the needed technologies.

anything helps

[Robby]

That's an onboard GPU, and it seems to be quite weak. I couldn't find much on that GPU, but I think it supports OpenGL 1.5, which is too weak to run the game.

Though, anybody is free to correct me if I'm wrong.

[jens]

Yes it is too weak as well, maybe maybe there is a driver update that adds software 2.1 opengl support, but I am not sure. Even so the performance would be very very not satisfactory.

[plutomaniac]

Jens is right, you can install the latest drivers for software OpenGL 2.1 but the performance will not be acceptable...

[TheBlastPassage]

Thanks. I realized that my GPU (Intel 4 Series) doesn't work with the game at all. It's a hardware limitation.
