DW on Laptop

Hi everyone

I've been trying to get DW to work on my laptop with limited success as it seems to crash severely whenever 3d is accessed or manipulated. The intro seems to run fine. The game crashes as soon as I try to access the graphics settings in the options screen or if I'm viewing a 3d window in the game itself.

Now I can switch it to 'no 3d' in the .ini file and the game seems to work ok, but it seems as if I would be limited to screens without 3d (i.e no FFG bridge, sub periscope etc). I wouldnt mind so much but when it crashes it doesnt just CTD it reboots compltely and has to run scan disk. I'm sure the graphics adaptor is at fault but I didnt think you'd need a particularly high end card to run DW.

If anyone has experience getting DW to run on integrated graphics laptop I'd most grateful for your help!

The laptops specs are as follows:
Sempron 2800+
512mb RAM
Graphics: VIA/S3G UniChrome Pro IGP
