My GPU is a Intel Mobile HD (Toshiba Libretto w105), which is not on the list of incompatible cards. Anyone suffered from this problem and got it fixed? It seems if I could jsut get it to start windowed (I have the option ticked) I could get it working, but alas I cannot. Any help would be appreciated.

There may be problems if your video card doesn't support 1024*768. The specs for the w105 suggest 1024*600.

curse hard coded resolutions. I wander if the driver can truncate the rsolution when its full screen. Guess I'll see. Thanks for the reply.

I was having problems, too, with crashing at the start-up--I'm running a Dell XPS 1530 with a 8600M GT video card & the latest drivers, and it seemed that no matter what I did, Sacred would crash about 2 seconds after start-up; but I did succeed in getting it to work.

I made sure I had absolutely nothing running in the background.
I went into the NVIDIA Control Panel and set the screen resolution at 1024x768
I opened up Sacred's Properties panel and set it to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
Ran the program as Administrator

Worked like a charm!
