Wow. Okay - you gave plenty of information, just none useful in this case.
heh

No worries.. Figure out the NAME BRAND or CHIPSET of your video card, then
go to THAT manufacturers web site. The driver name is all but useless.. You
may have an NVidia card - but I cannot be sure, so I cannot give advice.

Your motherboard's built in video card is not very powerful by any stretch
of the imagination.

Newer drivers may expose more fuctionality (found at support.intel.com) but
ultimately may not be enough to play RoN or any recent games that really
push the video card.

You may need to get a newer video card. Modern ones from ATI or NVidia
should do the trick for you (9000 series or Geforce4 and above respectively)
