korrode Report post Posted July 9, 2009 Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family <-- graphics driver version: 7.15.10.1527 The latest driver available for Vista on Intel's site (7.15.10.1688) is slightly newer than the version you're running. You can get the latest driver here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Fi...?ProductID=2991 Try that and let us know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elf_Ninja Report post Posted July 19, 2009 Hey dunno if your still checking this but I thought i'd throw this out there since i had issues with vista as well I noticed you said you had a dual core and that your getting a graphics error I had a similar problem but i was able to load into EL but it would randomly black out and then give me the error. This is how i fixed it: before you start up EL launch your Windows task manager and go to the Processes tab Next start up EL but before you log in find the el.exe process on your list. Right click on it and go to Set Affinity Make sure only 1 cpu is selected Log in to EL and see if you have a problem From what i'm able to gather EL has a problem with sending information to secondary processors in windows and then causing it to crash. i was going to post it in bugs but was making sure before i did. But if it helps you then i can confirm it The problem although a processor one tends to show up as video error. Let me know if this works for you i'm interested in seeing if this is the case. It seems to have solved mine "video" error. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
