Tripredacus Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Make sure to use the Mobile driver on the notebook instead of the desktop driver. IIRC there was a time when desktop and cpu graphics used the same HwIDs, where you could load the desktop driver onto the mobile, but it didn't unlock the extra features that the mobile chip has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theelf Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Hi, sorry delay to answer, finally i "solve" the problem I think is a driver or game bug, with fullscreen, i borrow a different laptop to a friend, with a GMA4500 too, and installed XP... same problem I used latest drivers, and tested different version too, same bug I solve with DxWnd, this software is a hooker to run fullscreen programs in window, and the game run great in a "fake fullscreen" in other words a bordeless window with size of laptop native resolution Is not a elegant solution, but i can play the game thanks for reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
