    No, you can't run Halo 2 on an integrated graphics chipset like that.

    You need a dedicated video card (7000 or 8000 series, for example).

    No. Halo 2 needs a dedicated video card.

    Frankly Halo 2 is somewhat of a disappointment on the PC. Most of the reviews have been mediocre on it.
