Intel HD can run the game but you are loading a save game which seems to be corrupt.
Game detects Intel card instead of ATI card, I don't know how can we make it to choose ati one. Pluto knows better.

Hi, i can help you with that. Firstly you have both Intel embedded and AMD dedicated. Unfortunately all laptops with such configuration detect only the intel one when it comes to OpenGL gaming. Secondly you can play the game with such intel graphics card but you need to have the latest drivers installed which is 2361 and not 2342. Tan will give you a link to the latest drivers according to your operating system and whether you have laptop/desktop. I'm posting through mobile so I cannot provide you with a link right now. Ask Tan. Smile

I did it! And I will tell you how I dids it!

My laptop HP pavilion ds7 6135 dsx used custom drivers!!! This was a problem, because that custom driver wasn't Amnesia-friendly. So I went to http://downloadcenter.intel.com/ , and specifically looked for the driver version 2361. I downloaded, rebooted, and it worked

One interesting thing though, is that it said that the driver I was installing was a "Older version" of my driver that I had in there at the time...

Guess it isn't so old now is it, Mista laptop.

This was alot of looking. Thank you everyone!
