Try uninstalling the Intel drivers and run the game.

I see, well I uninstalled the intel drivers and attempted to run the game but no such luck. Same error message. Thanks for your suggestion though.

1) Make sure your catalyst center is up-to-date
Try running the game. If it doesn't work
2) Please notify us of any antivirus programs you have running
3) Update your .NET runtime to the latest if you do have an antivirus installed

1) My catalyst center is not up-to-date, but when I read the release notes for the latest driver on the ati website, it says it is not compatible with Switchable Graphics enabled notebooks using Intel chipsets. On the HP website, I have the latest driver that they have but it isn't up-to-date with the ati website's driver.
2) My only antivirus program is lavasoft's ad-aware.
3) I am not familiar with .NET runtime. Windows 7 says that my computer is up-to-date, but I can't find anything on my computer about .NET runtime. Could anyone give me directions on how to update it? Thanks.

RE: LoadLibrary failed with error 998
Have you tried running the game as admin? It could be some permission problem causing the issue.

I only have one user account on my computer so I'm pretty sure I'm running the game as admin unless I'm missing something.

Please try disabling lavasoft then run the game. Sometimes anti virus software is trying to inject itself into processes, which could cause this error.

No luck. I tried disabling lavasoft, but same error message. Sad
