oh ok now i tried launching another game which is Xcom: enemy unknown and now a message shows up saying "your video card does not support alpha blending with floating point render targets (D3DFMT_A16B16G16R16F), which is required to run this game. Exiting..." ugh... now what? how do people even play games with integrated graphics? why so many problems showing up? is there anything i missed which i didnt install?

...Did the thought ever occur to you to...You know, search for 'Intel Drivers' on Google or something?

I mean, dude, you have the complete and awe-inspiring power of the internet at you're fingertips...Do some digging. =l

We all start out as noobs, but...This is basic stuff, man.

EDIT: Ah, very well, then.

Do you have an old graphics card laying around? TBH how long will it take until the 660 ti comes back? just wait a bit

cant i use the HD4600? i want to be able to rely on this one too even though i have the other GPU (not at the moment of course) and no, no old GPUs here ive only owned this gtx660ti and a HD6470m which is in my laptop which i wont tear appart just to get the GPU which i dont even think i can get into the PC...
 
You can't mix laptop parts with desktop parts, they don't work the same way, different connections and so on. Simple answer NO! normally because IG (Integrated graphics) are just a cheap video chipset so someone can use the computer 'withotu buying a expensive gamer's card'. It is for BASIC use of the computer (youtube, websurfing, email, make documents, etc. - the other 90% use for PCs).

That said, I gave you a link in the other thread about your laptop, if you went to the same website and looked up this video card, then you would have come across this generalized information
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-HD-Graphics-4600.86106.0.html

Now that said back to basics.
1) Use SPECCY, what is your full specs.
2) Uninstall all Intel, AMD, NVIDIA drivers. Then install and use Driver Sweeper to REALLY remove them from your computer, reboot. Will take a bit longer to boot (be patient) then when you get to desktop go back to INTEL.COM click the Support, and follow the wizard to scan and update your drivers. Does it work now?
3) If there is a specific error being told, then that is the issue, your IG on your machine doesn't have the hardware to play the game. Go buy a video card. You will also probably need a new PSU as the common video cards need more then the OEM (250-300W) PSU included.

already uninstalled, i installed driver sweeper, checked every box that had AMD, NVIDIA and INTEL in its name, clicked the clean button, rebooted PC... now i checked for updates in the processor and seems like its already updated. if you think my PC cant run it then please explain me this video>
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY2E58iN_Dg

heres what speccy told me:

Operating System
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i5 4570 @ 3.20GHz 66 °C
Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. B85M-G (SOCKET 1150) 11 °C
Storage
931GB ATA TOSHIBA DT01ACA1 SCSI Disk Device (SATA) 32 °C
Optical Drives
TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-224DB SCSI CdRom Device
Audio
High Definition Audio Device

its impossible to tell that it cant run a game, you can pick up a GPU like GeForce 8800 GT, run crysis 3 in ultra settings and it will still run!! even though it would look like a slide show more than a gameplay. GPUs arent a must have in a PC and yes im trying to run a game but cmon its not like im trying to play crysis 3 its COD black ops (+its graphics suck).

http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect
when im here and i click on automaticly detect and update a loading bar will appear and it gets stuck at "analyzing computer" like if it was analizing it... for 2 hours...
 
Tiger, you need when at Intel, to OKAY the script to analyze your computer. Sometimes it requires a install then try again. No you shouldn't just waited 2 hours, it does take that long to 'look' at a computer.

That said COD Black OPS is on the level of Crysis thank you. Your measurements are off, your acting like COD Black Ops is akin to Farmville or something that low end, you really don't have a clue. I think you have a serious responsible choice at this point. 1) Take some basic 101 classes on computers and how programs work if you wish to keep getting this and more indepth or 2) just do what everyone else does and just stick to a freakin' console . I think 2 is more your speed, and will be SO MUCH less a headache for you.

i like PCs, they are a challenge, you clearly dont get anything im saying, if you just want to kick me from PCs then im sorry but no, now stop repeating the same sh!t over and over im sick of it. i am a begginer in PCs yes but what the hell you were a noobie too and soon baby grows teeth so stop it. im still learning
 


Nobody uses COD Black Ops as a benchmark for testing GPUs, so that should be your first sign that it is not that high-end graphics-wise. Crysis 3 is much more advanced. That's just a fact.
 


Just start reading alot of discussions here on tom's and you will learn alot. Read forum members' responses to others problems, build questions etc. and you will learn alot.
 
honestly Tiger, you're right that everyone was a noob at one point, but most of us who made it this far didn't get here by going around and throwing our noobiness (I don't care it's not a word) into other people's laps and asking them to fix it. like others have said, you learn by researching yourself. all the good IT pros made it that way. read threads and articles on Tom's, then search around the web, maxium PC, Anandtech, techpowerup, etc etc, there are many good resources out there, all easily found through the power of google.

after reading, if you really don't understand something, or just want to double check on your understanding, that's what the forums are for: for clearing things up.
 
@Tom Tancredi

COD Black OPS is NOT on the same level of a rigorous benchmark/diagnostic tool as Crysis, it never was and it never will be. maybe on certain instances it can be just as or more demanding than Crysis, but it is hardly reproducible and thus not reliable.
