I've updated everything, drivers and all. Sorry forgot to include the card and such (can't believe that slipped my mind). I don't know exactly what information I need to include about my computer, so I'll post everything. BTW, I am well aware that Vista sucks. They won't sell new laptops without it, and I can't afford to pay them to "down"grade it back to XP. Such is life.
Sorry this image is kind of giant...

Ahahaha!
Your problem is your graphics card aka it sucks ass. How do you fix it? Get a new one. If you have a laptop you must buy a new one.
Simsbaby:
What is your problem? Yes, that isn't exactly an Nvidia 9800GTX, but it should handle the game perfectly fine. I had an even lower end card and my game ran very smoothly, just not with all the settings on high. ::)
EmilyTwitch, try getting the newest drivers from intel. Windows update doesn't usually have the latest video drivers. This should be what you need.
EmilyTwitch:
Simsbaby, thank you! Played the game for a couple hours today, no crash. And somehow I managed to get the CC to show up. Thanks for all the help you guys!

Yeah, I know it should handle at lowest graphics with lag here and there but, really, upgrades aren't that hard (unless you have a laptop). A better graphics card would help... a lot. I, too, have a lower end card but it's definitely not as low as that one. The more stress you put on a card the more likely it is to fry. Depending on whether or not the computer is properly cooled and/or overclocked it could also take out surrounding components. By playing a game with the higher graphics (even on low) this person is putting extreme stress on such a low card.
ScoobyDoo:
Does the intergrated cards even support Aero?
