    I have this: http://www.notebookreview.com/defau....8GHz,+2GB+RAM,+20GB+HDD,+Vista+Home+Premium)
    I just updated my X3100 Intel graphics to the most recent driver release, and I wondered whether I would be able to play CS:S. Based on another thread, Chaz was able to get it working on this integrated card, but I wasn't sure what the rest of his system looked like.

    2gb ram. 1.8ghz dual core. 935 chipset x3100 graphics.
    Any luck for me?

    Thanks for the help.

    I tried the game in the past and it wasn't playable.
    Would Vista affect performance? Or how can I improve performance?

    Installed the game, now it won't open. A launch screen, then flashes, then nothing.

    Any ideas?
