I'm not part of that 80% then.

I want to know if there is a better driver that will give me better fps in game-play than any of the Intel ones. I know I'm fine right now, but as soon as a map has a polygon spike ren lags more than my mouse does at low battery, and when i frap something i drop down to 10 fps

Point is, that onboard graphics won't give you any higher fps even with a better driver.. Intel makes decent/qaulity onboard graphics. But like others said that's just for the "mail/web/word thingy. There is some decent onboard out there, but it's not on your motherboard. To bad you don't have a AGP slot, because a 2.8ghz p4 with 800 bus is not bad at all and with a decent graphics card you can easily get 60 fps over 12 players in Renegade on high detail, with that said your better of buying a new PC.

As far as onboard graphics go, Intel are in the middle. At the top end are GeForce/ATI integrated, and at the bottom end are everyone else.

To boost your FPS, you'll be wanting to tweak your Renegade settings, I doubt you'll find better drivers than the standard Intel ones.

Tweak as in adjust quality settings, right?
