Default Graphics Issue (DXDiag included)

Since this forum keeps giving me a "500 Server Error" and yet I can somehow post, I guess I'll refer you to a link to where posting my problem DID work.

http://www.presearing.com/forum/index.php?topic=57111.0

Basically, GW likes to crash on me one seemingly random outposts. Wehhan Terraces, Central Transfer Chamber, some Realm of Madness zones, and probably a couple more I am unaware of.

It gives me a "please update your drivers" type message. Thing is, I have. A -few- times in the past couple of years, which is how long this problem has persisted.

Maybe someone can find the solution to the issue buried in that mess.

You have a GMA 3100. Look in the sticky for the answers you seek.

No dice. I got this on load;

The first 'link' apparently no longer exists, so I got the second Zip and put them in the proper GW folder. Didn't work. Next?

I actually -have- 3dAnalyzer, I just need, like, some kind of post telling me how to set certain things up.
Okay, I got it working. Still, a non-3rd party fix would be nice.

It's a hardware issue, not a GW issue. The only better solution is "get a better graphics card."

Yea, so I hear.
But I'm off playing free MMO's for a reason. I don't have that kind of money to throw around.

You could try downloading and running 3D Analyze. I have a computer with Intel chipset and I use this program when I'm going to certain areas.

Here is a link describing it: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/i...hlight=analyze

Hope it helps.

I already mentioned I have it. Though to be fair, it's crossed out so it might have passed your attention.

I'm running GW in the problem areas just fine now, with a couple odd graphical oddities but, crashless.
