Anyone suffered graphic bugs/glitches when gaming with Intels integrated HD graphics GPU? I'm sure it's not only me. Will start with the first few games regarding HD3000 on i5-2500k with newest drivers,
- Tropico 3: the water is messed up, screens below /Update: fixed with 8.15.10.2401

- Trackmania United/Forever: graphic glitches with motion blur enabled (first two screens below with motion blur, last two without)

- Oblivion: when playing with HDR enabled only a bluish picture over the entire screen
http://www.abload.de/img/787i6.jpg http://www.abload.de/img/787i6.jpg
- Final Fantasy XIV Benchmark: it lags like hell for some reason (if asked for I capture a video, but you can search for AMDs LLano video, they used this glitch to promote Llanos multithreading performance, it's exactly the same) /Update: almost no lags with 8.15.10.2401
- Farming Simulator 2011: crashing or not loading with graphic setting medium and high, only workable with lowest graphic setting
- Fear, Arcania, Oblivion, GTR 2, Dragon Age: anisotropic filtering not applied when enabled in control center (this bug is endless, looks like AF in control center is more a placebo option actually)
That's my first reporting. Feel free to post more bugs here.

Based on the same Engine as Tropico 3 from Haemimont games. Not a big surprise that it suffers the same water issues.

- Titan Quest complete failure. The game doesn't start with the error message: "couldn't initialize graphics engine"
Not a traditionell game glitch but strange enough. HD3000 should be OpenGL 3.0 or 3.1 compliant as reported in GPU Caps Viewer. I can play all OpenGL 2.x demos except GL 2.1 HW Geometry Instancing with Caps Viewer. Not sure if a bug or something is missing.

It should be fixed asap because previous driver did fine here.

Status Update with driver 8.15.10.2430:
- Metro 2033 not broken anymore
- Farming Simulator not crashing anymore with Medium, High and Very High graphics preset
- Hawx 2 menu font not corrupted anymore
AF Filtering is working only in OpenGL games when forced via Control panel, but this is the case with every driver. More a fundamental thing.

I was hoping the latest firmware and driver updates would have solved this but I have the following problems:
Oblivion - locks up (whole computer)
Guild Wars - locks up (whole computer)
Conan - locks up (whole computer)
Sometimes it will work for hours, even days, then it will lock up repeatedly within minutes of starting the game. Temperatures are not a problem.
I have had no problems in 2D world, only with games. When it was new, I would get the message that the graphics crashed and it recovered. sometimes I could recover from the crash by pulling up the task manager and cancelling it, but not anymore. Now it just locks up, often with a nasty noise in the speaker.
Asrock Z68 Pro3, Windows 7 Professional 64bit, 8 gig ram, two monitors
I'm using the asrock provided driver VGA driver ver:15.22.2.2372

I have serious issues with the intel IGPU drivers as well. The current games I'm trying to play (and failing miserably because of the poor drivers) are;
Tropico: When enabling hardware acceleration in-game the display is completely garbled, I also can't change resolution from 1024*768 to my native resolution of 1366*768.
Tropic 2: I can't change resolution from 1024*768 to my native 1366*768.
Tropico 3: The game just runs like crap even with all in-game settings set to low / off.. I know the integrated 4500M IGPU isn't exactly powerful but it should surely be powerful enough with 10 unified pipelines to run Tropico 3 in my native resolution with medium settings and get around 20FPS. Hell, I can even run Mass Effect 2 at good settings with the aid of a modded driver and thats far more demanding than Tropico 3! Come on intel, sort yourselves out..
My laptop specs:
T7700 (dual core 2.4GHz, 4MB cache)
2x2GB PC6400 5-5-5-15
Intel 4500M (10 unified pipelines @ 400MHz) w\ 2413 driver
Latest DirectX & Audio drivers
I'll be keeping a close eye on this thread in hopes of a remedy at least to the poor Tropico 3 performance.

HD3000 Driver 8.15.10.2476
Black screen ingame:
- Red Alert 2
- Space Rangers 2
Gamma issue (too dark):
- Quake 3
- Soldier of Fortune II
- Call of Duty United Offensive
When I change a graphics setting in Quake 3 or Soldier of fortune II the gamma looks for a second normal bright and then it switched back to the darkness. Could be a major flaw, I'm sure there are many more games with the same gamma issue. In window mode the gamma is better but in fullscreen way too dark.

I noticed that too, but only with ioquake: when the game starts the brightness is normal for a couple of seconds while the "id software" animation is displayed. Later, if a "vid_restart" is done, again the bightness returns to normal for a couple of seconds.
There's another small annoyance I didn't mention before: if I start quake 3 while the Firefox window is minimized, then the game plays with a solid grey screen (the sound plays normally, indicating that the game is not crashed). This issue doesn't happen with ioquke, only with id software quake 3 builds.

Obviously there is a big gamma bug in Intels driver. Very annoying. What IGP do you have?

I have a HD 3000 (remember, it's me who reported the quake 3 issue in the first place ).

Speaking of gamma issues, Tropico 1&2 suffer from it as well. All is normal in-game, but when you exit the desktop is really bright. Only way to fix it is a restart >_<

I noticed something strange with Starcraft 2 that might be related to the quake 3 darkness problem:
if I launch starcraft 2, then if I use Alt+Tab to switch to the destop, and then if I switch back to starcraft 2, the brightness looks ok for 3 ou 4 seconds and then it suddendly turns dark.

Could be related to the gamma issue indeed. I'm not surprised that other games I haven't tested are affected as well. Very annoying Bug, serious issue.

While I can run ME2, I can't save anything as hitting the "esc" key to access the in-game menu causes the game to freeze. (It runs well with a somewhat older driver, 2361). What's your modded driver (the megaupload link is broken)? Thanks!

I've been playing skyrim with the Intel HD... I have to play in windowed mode as the computer will crash (computer shuts off) all setting have to be on low... I am not using the the newest intel drivers as when I previously used them the computer would rev up and crash with in minutes... at least not if I want I can play the game for hours... I am using the newest drivers that are posted on Dells website...
This graphics card is by no means HD...
We are all still waiting for new drivers right?.... And still waiting for Intel to support their products.... ( when the end user has to hunt for drivers to work with their product I think Intel dropped the ball )

I haven't had any problems with the latest intel driver on my 4500M yet (I modded it, of course), although performance and compatibility is still below par for games. How hard can it be to get Tropico3 running a solid 20+FPS with medium settings? Surely not that hard.... This experience is just another reason to make sure a intel GPU isn't at the heart of your laptop. We all know intel GPUs have always been pants... but then intel started saying their (at the time) latest GPU was capable of running games at average settings. Liars.
