Requesting Specific Steps - EpiqueSauce - 12-29-2011

I've noticed that a lot of people are having the same trouble as I am with starting Amnesia. I've tried to follow the steps that people have given, but nothing has seemed to work thus far. Just for the sake of being descriptive: My problem is a black screen accompanied by a white dot. The menu's work, so do the sounds. In short, I can run the game just fine, I just can't see anything.

I'm trying to play on a Toshiba Laptop with Windows 7 (64 bit)
and the display is:
Name: Intel® HD Graphics Family
Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
Chip type: Intel® HD Graphics Family
DAC type: Internal

Drivers
Main Drivers: igdumd64.dll,igd10um64.dll,igd10um
Version: 8.15.10.2353

Stuff from my hpl

Vendor: Intel
Renderer: Intel® HD Graphics Family
Version: 3.0.0 - Build 8.15.10.2353

I've been to this website: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/
and I cant figure out what to fill in each category. So if you could please tell me what should go in each one exactly, that would be great. Also I'd like to know if there is an updated version so that I can play this game!!

Seriously, I need some help, I've been trying for hours.
-Thanks

I already read that. Still stumped. Otherwise I wouldn't have posted something in the first place :/

Your Intel drivers are not updated, that's why that happens. Toshiba specifics are here:

However, it is the same method as I said before. It always works so apparently you are doing something wrong. At step one you need this file: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=20675&ProdId=3231&lang=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20%2864-bit%29*&DownloadType=%0ADrivers%0A
