Yup I set it up on it. You have to lower everything all the way, but a friend of mine played it through on a GMA950 (under XP)

Yeah, my friend has this old laptop, he couldn't play DoW because he didn't have enough RAM, and even though his videocard was onboard (using shared memory), he passed the test after adding more RAM.

Thanks guys!
Been looking at Close Combat... Seeing as it's RTT and my friend's an impatient man, he probably won't find appealing. Me however, from what I've read, will get the games to try them. So thanks!
