Thank you for the tip, I downloaded and installed what I thought was the latest drivers avalible at HP's website, but the game still doesn't work. Shall I give up and state that I can't run the game on my computer, or is there anything else I can try?Try HP website see if they have newer video drivers.

You could try uninstalling, deleting all the files and then reinstalling.

Go to the config panel of your graphic card, you might be able to set 3D settings for the game there

I have now uninstalled the program and then installed it again, but it made no sence. I have also looked in the control panel for my graphic card, but it seems like only general settings is available.

As I said built-it graphics chipset does not support hardware effects... but I've found something interesting on Intel website. So they produced graphics chipset X3000 and higher... That's good. It has still shared memory, but it support effects like dedicated GPU. I'm suprized.HP Compaq 6510b

Joel. Important question! What chipset model do you have. Is it PM965 or GM965.

According to info on the site you should have chance to run Em4. Right-click on My computer, then properties and go to hardware management and read graphics card model. Is it X3100?I can't find that information on the computer, but according to the download center on HP's website it seems like I have GM965.

At hardware management (it should be called that way or similar) find graphics card. Expand it clicking on +. Then you will see your graphics card name.

The graphics card name is Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family, and that's all the information I get when following your instructions.

So probably you have PM965 version with normal built-in GPU, not this X3100. But to be shure run some test program like SiSoft Sandra or similar to get more precise data.The graphics card name is Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family, and that's all the information I get when following your instructions.

Well... Try to find full technical specification about X3100 -> what it supports and what it does not. There is need to compare GPU specs with requirements from uploaded log file from Em4.I have now downloaded and installed EVEREST, and I seem to have X3100.

You've pasted few post earlier log file with information about crash Em4.I'm not sure what you mean? When I look at the specifications for the graphics card, what am I going to compare with?
Read in that ini file from
"|Extension GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic not available" (you can read here that game was searching for anitropic filter effect)
to the end of that file.
