Since it's now $6.99... that's not 50% off.
Here's a link to the rundown on the graphics part of the Intel 945GM, the Intel® GMA950 chip . It supports Shader Model 2.0, however some aspects of DirectX 9 are software only.

MilCon, you misunderstand my intentions. I'm not trying to imply you didn't bother to research whether or not the specific bug had already been posted, I'm simply trying to provide useful information to go along with your post.

I'm curious. What are the most recent games that support 800x600? Looking around, it doesn't look like too many games released recently (if any) support a resolution so low.
