I can't play the remastered because it required a OpenGL 3.3. driver which Intel does not support for the graphics card my laptop has.

The Classic Version in the Remastered Bundle I believe uses the same engine and thus the answer would be no. If you still have the bundle however I'd say it can't hurt to give it a try if the Classic versions in the bundle work or not...I've read mixed messages from people said the Classic did work but after a Update of the game it no longer did.

under the system req:

Additional Notes: * Game engine uses OpenGL3.3 It is important that you get the latest drivers for your video card to ensure compatibility with this product.

If you're refering to the original 1999 release then there are work arounds found online to get it working Windows 7. So if you have the CD still you could give it a shot.

Out of curiosity might I ask what video card your Laptop has?

The problem is with my laptop's video card. Intel never did an OpenGL 3.3 driver for the Intel HD graphics 3000 card so I'm pretty much screwed.again!!
Otherwise this whole issue would be mute.
Funny how a desktop that I built years ago could run the older game but a newer laptop can't.
Hence I tried to start up the old desktop but while the power came on I couldn't get anything to come on the monitor I was using with either HDMI or the attached vga cable.
