Radion Mobility IGP 7000 w/ DH mod drivers... running SL under

Hi all,

I have a Toshiba laptop with Radion IGP 7000 intergrated graphics. Toshiba refuse to release updated Catalyst so I'm running the Driver Heaven mobility mod to allow me to run catalyst (today 6.13) on the IGP 7000.

Trouble is, i think, second life can't read this as a supported card any more because of the driver mod. I'm pretty sure the IGP 7000 should run SL ok (hell it runs NFS Carbon) so is there a switch to let me by-pass driver detection and run anyway?
Might there be any other work-around for this?

(appologies if a post on this exists already, a search did not reveal an obvious post on this)

Thanks!

Your video card has been out since March of 2003..... Its comparable to a Radeon 7000 which is not compatible. If you look at the compatibility requirements for SL it states that a Radeon 8500 is the minimum to run, and any IGP is untested and can be unstable, thats two things that tell you it should not work. Doesn't matter what drivers you use since the hardware itself shouldn't be able to run. Also SL cant be compared to any game on the market, if it runs NFS Carbon thats good but it doesn't mean much when you compare it to SL since everything is dynamic.

ok, tks for the info. In any case, should there be a way to try it regardless of the spec, I would still like to do that. Quite often minimum and recomended specs are still only a 'should-be' and no one can definatively say it won't work...
A switch would be nice.
