Do I need a new Video Card?

[Donn1988]

I got COD-4 today and i installed everything and it went smoothly. As soon as i was going to get into the single player mode, a damn error message came up and stated "video card or driver doesn't support UBYTE4N vertex data". If figured if this is a hardware problem then im screwed because i got a laptop, and if it is a software problem maybe a patch? Im sure people on here would know......thanks for the help.

by the way the same thing happens for mulitplayer mode

firstly, What is your graphics card on your laptop?
second, try updating to the latest drivers

Im pretty sure it is a Intel G965/Q963 Express Chipset Famliy Video driver.

that's part of the new X3000 chipset, but I don't know if it can run the game.

perhaps you could try http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest selecting Call of Duty 4 and see what the results are.
