Will my Intel Chipset be able to run this?

[Infinite Pudding]

I have Intel(R) G33/G31Express Chipset Family in my box for now till I can replace my burned out GPU. I can run the orginal games fine. Will I be able to run BGEE and Bg2ee? I really want them and I've been trying to find out all over the place. If someone could help me out I would really appreciate it.

Not sure, but I have ran it on an intel hd 3000 without problem.

The game requires Open GL 2.0

The G33's dont' support OpenGL2.0

Thanks Satoru. Thanks to you I won't waste my money.

Are you sure, Satoru? Beamdog lists the system requirements as:

Required System Memory (MB) 512 MB
Minimum Graphics OpenGL 1.1 compatible
Processor Speed (GHz) 1 GHZ

And according to this, G31/33 Express supports OpenGL 1.4:

The system requirements for BG:EE on Steam say OpenGL 2.0.

As do the pages for BGII:EE and IWD:EE on Beamdog's website.

IWD:EE:

I'm fairly certain you need at least OpenGL 2.0 to run BG:EE.

Hmm, looks they have inconsistent requirement posts, then.
