Computer Flight Simulators > Vista and Phoenix - how do I update my graphics driver?

Hello,

I just bought a copy of Phoenix last week for my Toshiba Sattellite laptop which is very new at only three months old and came with Vista installed.

After I installed Phoenix it seems to work fine except for a couple of annoying problems. Any attempt to load scenery that uses water causes it to freeze up and I get a (not responding) message that can only be fixed by exiting the program and re-starting. THis also occurs when I try the autorotation training feature.
Everything else seems to work perfectly; the scenery is nice and crisp, movement is smooth and the helis fly great.

I e-mailed Runtime Games for help and they suggested updating my graphics drivers. How do I do this? More specifically, how do I identify which graphics device I have and how do I check for the latest update?

Failing this, can I adjust the resolution or something to overcome these defects?

The easiest way I know is, Open Control Panel, click on Classic View, click on System Devices scroll down till you find Mobile Intel right click on it, click on Update Driver Software, click on Search automatically for up date driver software.
