Video Card : Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family

this is the problem this card is no gaming card and it is not supported, if it works it's great if not we can't really help you
read the FAQ: http://www.thewitche...p?topic=17503.0 update to patch 1.5  and remove TAGES ( in this order if you did not already ) and read about the Minimum Requirements error too
the DirectX Runtime contains all the needed libs for DX9/DX10/DX11 in one install: http://www.microsoft...57-5ab8109cb4f5 please install it as W7 does not update it ( you linked to the SDK which is something else and you don't need that )

I understand it's not for gaming lol that's why I'm trying to figure out how to get around it. I understand the concept as I do programing for a living lol. I thank you though for that because I've been very busy I overlooked that because I play much more advanced games then the witcher :) I realized that was a bad link after I posted it my apologies :) Thanks again for the help I guess for a lot of us then we must get a new graphic card ato avoid this problem with other games in the future. That's the easiest way around that right haha

Ok so I just bought the game the other day and after a smooth installation, im experiencing horribly choppy cutscenes and an in game FPS that would makes the game nearly unplayable, even at the lowest resolution and graphics/video settings.  My system specs are as follows:

Processor : AMD Athlon X2 dual core QL 64 2.10 GHz
RAM: 4 gigs
320 GB HDD
graphics: ATI Radeon HD 3200 w/ 1917 mb

They seem to meet the minimum requirements but my friend runs the game better with lower specs, anyone know what my deal is?

[Mik@`el]

HD 3200 is not a  card for games, check here. Can you give your friend's specs?

Hi! My problem is that the game lags a lot, especially outdoors. Running is a real pain, because it stutters so much, that my game looks like a stop motion film. It gets a bit better if I point my camera at the ground. Unfortunately the reduction of viewing distance didn't change the performance. I've tried to reduce other graphical settings, but it does not seem to change anything. Strangest thing is that I was able to run this game at almost maxed out settings just last year with the same computer. Any help appreciated.  :)

I wish I had something to add to the discussion of 55 pages, but I'm having the same issue as anybody else.  I'm at a hands-in-the-air loss as to why this is running so choppy.  Maybe someone might know if there's any tweaking to be done within my card's software?  I've already downscaled the resolution, tuned down the settings, all to no avail.

My specs:

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Intel Pentium Dual-core E5200 2.50GHz
4096MB DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS 512MB

Interestingly, I noticed that dxdiag shows 2287MB of memory, even though it clearly indicates the GeForce 8400 as the device.  I guess it's sharing memory with the mobo?

Greetings,
I bought this game to try it out on the new pc. Unfortunately, it's running choppy, especially in cutscenes and also in combat or sometimes when I'm changing the camera's perspective or turning viewpoint. Generally performance of the game is so-so. I tried downscaling the resolution, turning off AA, decreasing AF and graphic details. Didn't help much. I have the latest video card drivers.

My specs:

Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit
AMD Athlon II X4 630 2.81 GHZ
2047MB DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce 210

Hello there, I'm currently at chapter 4 and during a conversation

with Berenger

the game crashes instantly right after Geralt asks, "what contract ?" regarding the Ripples quest. I've completed the game before on the non-EE where this crash never occured. However, attempting to replay the game on the EE version has resulted in this. This never-ceasing crash is hindering my further progress into the story so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

System Specs :

Windwos Vista - 32-bit version
Nvidia GTX 295 graphics card
Core i7 920 - 2.66Ghz CPU
P6T Deluxe V2 motherboard
3GB DDR3 RAM

I have been playing the original version of the witcher for well over a year now and it has always run very smoothly for me.  Yesterday I bought the enhanced edition and right away i noticed the frame rate was not quite as smooth as it was before.  Far from unplayable, but annoying none the less.  The weird thing is, whether the graphic settings are set to low or high, the games runs almost the same.  This is leading me to believe that it is a bug or something with the EE.  If anybody could shed some light on this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
My Specs are

Win XP
Intel quad core 2.4gz
2 gigs ram
nividia 9600gt latest driver
latest directx

I am having the same problem with my dual core 2.5ghz, 4gb ram, dual nvidia 8700m GTs. I run a dell xps m1730, i used to have a dell xps 15 series with xp (instead of vista which i have now) and it's specs were far less (2gb ram, etc) and it ran perfect. Now EE on my laptop the sound/graphics are choppy and horrible, but the same on low or high settings.

did you try to use an older savegame instead of the current one and reply a bit before the crash ?
