i'm trying to run amnesia on my laptop, but it's a good laptop and can run a lot of games. my system does meet the amnesia minimum requirements and everything. i've heard though that intel processors have trouble with the game for some reason. is there a program or driver i can download to make this game work? could i turn off shaders or something somehow? here is the hpl thing that i get when i try to run the game.

It seems you have an integrated intel graphics chip, which is not able to run the game. You'll need graphics from ATI or NVIDIA I'm afraid to run the game.

can i do that for a laptop? i would love to just buy a graphics card because i don't have the money right now to get a desktop computer. i would gladly buy an ATI or NVIDIA if that's possible without spending an additional 700 dollars to build my computer.

Contact your vendor and ask if you can install separate GFX card.
