Amnesia The Dark Descent can't run - Tonadaicristo - 03-23-2013

Hello guys!

I can not make Amnesia The Dark descent to run.I have tried every steps I need,but they did not help.
My hpl.log file writes:ATTENTION: System does not support const arrays in glsl!
But I have tried out everything,I installed my last graphics card and Amnesia Update 1.2.
I am wondering,this error message should not have show up.
So,here are my answers:
1.Windows 7,32-bit
2.Laptop,Aspire 5730Z(it has an Intel videocard)
3.hpl.log attached!

The game uses OpenGL which is more rare especially at older or lower-end graphics cards like Intel ones for example. Basically, your graphics card needs to support OpenGL 2.1 or more. Anything below 2.1 will fail to work.

Seems like it.

Integrated Chipsets are not compatible.

So I cant play with Amnesia,right?I think there might be a solution for this.

Unfortunately, the Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family will not run Amnesia.

I'm very sorry, but there's no solution. You need to buy another graphic card.
