The crash window suggests turning sounds of as a possible workaround, it doesn't change anything



It recommends I update my Intel driver, when I run the detector/updater it shows five results:

Graphics Driver

A customized computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update Utility is not able to update the driver. Installing a generic Intel driver instead of the customized computer manufacturer driver may cause technical issues. Contact your computer manufacturer for the latest driver for your computer.

(I updated this when I first tried to load the game)

As far as I know my laptop still has the hardware it came with when we brought it. Is it worth updating the driver, if so can someone tell me what to do because I know almost nothing, or should I wait for my new laptop to turn up and try again then.

SAME FREAKING PROBLEM

 

[Melee Duece]

Yep, same graphics card and same problem. I\'ve looked everywhere and it all says it\'s up-to-date.

I have the same problem, I REALLY want to play this game but I cannot, on either of my 2 computers D:

The game does say intel graphics cards suffer problems. I haven\'t tried playing the game using my intel graphics card, but it works fine with an NVIDIA GTX610, which costs about $90. You could try manually downloading intel\'s drivers instead of using their driver update site. The update site doesn\'t always find the correct drivers for your machine. Also, make sure you\'re using 64-bit Java, you have OpenAL installed, and you have a version of LWJGL (found in the game\'s folder) that is compatible with your system. I hope you can fix the issue one way or another!

I have a few pc\'s and two of them are intel, one has a custom driver like yours, but the manufacture dosen\'t have an update. i download and tryed to install the updated driver anyway, and it will not let you.

Fix= Get a new pc and Screw intel, they have compatibility problems with a ton of games. best card i recomend it any radeon card, they all run great and i have never heard of any compatability problems with any games.

That\'s funny because I have a Radeon card, driver is up to date and I suffer the exact same problem that you all are having. I\'ve looked up the problem and everyone is saying it is the Intel cards, but that doesn\'t make sense because I have Radeon yet the game crashes when it loads to 100%.
