    Gettin Brothers in Arms to work with Intel Graphic Controller

    Hello I have a Inspirion 5160 that has xp sp2 pro 2.8 gig processor, 512 ram and i have a 64 bit Intel 82852 graphic controller card. When i load Brothers in Arms it will start the ubi logo soft, and then when the game comes up the screen goes blank but i still can hear sound. I have the latest drivers for the Intel Graphic card. Can anyone help me to get this game workin on my brand new laptop?

    Integrated graphics are always creating issues for games.

    Check in the Brothers in Arms manual, it might list the chipset as one that is either ok for the game, or can give issues. Also get the latest DirectX9.0c

    Check for any updates to the game also.

    Intel graphics eh? It's onboard too... If you want to play that high end game you need at least a moderate Graphic's card, which Intel is not. And since this is a laptop, no way to upgrade. Sorry

    Dude.

    Go to google and find the Brothers in Arms game site. On their site is a patch for the game. Maybe this patch will help you. Let me know if it does or not.

    DEFINITIVE ANSWER: Will not happen ever with that chipset. I does not even have hardware acceleration. That's the main problem with dell systems, most parents buy them for kids cuz they're cheap, then these kids wanna play the latest games with them and find the system can't handle the graphics requirements. I've intsalled so many radeons in dells it isn't even funny.
