This driver is valid for all G965 based MBs even mobile version i mean laptop based on G965
All the motherboards having integrated X3000 graphics only

But GMA 3000 is not capable of hardware TnL Q963 Boards
ONLY GMA X3000 is capable of Hardware TnL G965 Boards

I had several crashes owing to this problem.Which included the likes of Hitman Blood Money,NOLF2,Far Cry(graphical glitches),F.E.A.R,Resident Evil 4,Cold Fear & heck even Doom 3.

Of course.I own the 965RY as well which is based on the 965 series having GMA X3000 onboard.This was an update which Intel had planned months ago but had got delayed a bit too long.
I didnt uninstalled old drivers
Strangely If u start setup it will pop up message saying that
"the driver installed in system is newer than this" Do u want to install old drivers?"
I selected yes install anyway


I Tested the Game "PAINKILLER"
This game requires 100% 3d card capable of Hardware TnL
With old drivers the game poped up message saying hardware TnL card required
Now with beta drivers I played game at 1024x768 @ high settings without any problem that too very smooth @over 40 FPS

They listed
Elder Scrolls* IV: Obliviion as playable
Looking at this i guess all games will be playable

Still i will check many games and post the results here later
I will check these games

Hitman blood money
GRAW
INFERNAL
and many others
