I've never understood this.. so I can't help you...

I am afraid that the performance of your graphics cards are not enough to run demanding games, on the first place Open GL performance ! Maybe you should update graphic driver..

You need a Card that will run with Direct X 10. Your integrated Graphics package won't do this so you need to get a Card that will.

Select the game, and hit 'can you run it' - and it will automatically give you an answer as to whether you can do the minimum requirements or recommended.

as i write on this post before looks to me the page is lie

Ah, didnt see you post it before. Its not 100% of course but its a good starting point and has worked for me. Said I could run Dead Island on full and indeed I can, although it lags a bit, so I do medium.

[Azzaboi]

Intel® HD Graphics is a builtin integrated graphics card, this shares your system memory rather than having it's own, lots of computers these days have it, however most games today won't accept it as an actual graphics card.

You want to get an external graphics card for gaming purposes, one that support the shaders and directX11 as well as having it's own Video RAM. You should be able to slot one into your laptop, connect the monitor to it instead, and it will take over the integrated one.

If you need help picking one let me know.

You'd be surprised how far a $75 card can get you too

[Todd Simpson]

AZZA BOI has a great point. The Intel Graphics cards are integrated in to the mother board and share system RAM, so in other words they are fairly weak compared to the RADEON/NVIDIA parts and are used typically in more budget oriented systems. Sadly there is no easy way to upgrade a laptop video card. The good news is, if you are looking to play games, you can get an xbox really cheap and it will play Assasins Creed just fine I gave up on PC gaming when the xbox got cheaper than my gaming video card in my PC tower. Sold all my windows machines shortly after.

It's a normal thing with integrated GPUs, as Azzaboi said. I'm afraid it's not possible. Besides, with that graphic card it's better not to play that game (it wouldn't be very nice for watching, resolution will be small, and Assassin's Creed looks mediocre with low details)
