This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software. Was the error, when i tried to install intel video driver from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-70127 here. Before that, I uninstalled the intel video driver from computer. I forgot that, the computer is T400 switchable graphics with windows xp. I can install ati drivers with no problem!

Edit: The windows xp do not recognise a gma graphics at all!

Switchable graphics do not work on XP.

For the models with Switchable Graphics, make sure that the Integrated Graphics setting is selected in the BIOS Setup Utility. Refer to the following page for details. http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-71875

Basically you have to manually switch graphics in BIOS prior to booting.

No that is not the problem. I already changed it.

Apparently it's a known problem. You may be stuck waiting for an Intel video driver update, or you could try a driver directly from Intel.
