Your graphics card is the problem, I don't think it supports hardware T&L. However it will be integrated into the laptop and therefore it is impossible to replace it without changing the whole laptop.

Damn, I tried to post this earlier, but then the server went nuts

Here's what I was gonna write:

That integrated graphics chipset is the reason why BFV is not starting. Check out the Supported video chipsets:

* NVIDIA GeForce 3 or Higher
* ATI Radeon 8500 or Higher

Your laptop graphics processor clearly doesn't meet the requirements.

(GeForce...) and once i changed the graphic card everythings would going well rite?? i mean i can FINALLY play the game yea? if there anythings else that i need to add or do to be able to play this game please reply back..... thanks

As grim said, you cannot replace/change the graphics card, since it is built into the laptop's platine. It is a chip, looking very much like this:



Unlike a desktop computer's card (looking like this:



), you cannot just pull it out and put in a new one. You would have to buy a new notebook.

so the moto is: never buy a gaming laptop
desktops rules the world, unless it got a intel prosessor.

This is your second warning. Please stop bumping dead threads and posting ridiculous untrue comments. Next time you will get a 48 hours suspension.

My XPS M170 says differently.

My MacBook Pro agrees with insinuwait's XPS M170.
