I was going to buy FSPC X10 but the website says that integrated chipsets are not supported. My Advent laptop has a Mobile Intel(R)4 Series Express Chipset Family, DAC Type Internal. Does anyone know any software that lets me create games on this (ideally drag-and-drop rather than coding) Thanks in advance

I downloaded the original fpsc but go an DirectX10 error message, then saw in the readme file that it only runs on XP not vista, so since I have Vista OS and integrated chipset seems I can't run either fpsc or fpscX10 .... ?

error messase I get when trying to run original fpsc is "Latest DirectX Not instal... DxVersionError

When I did a dxdiag on my laptop I get DirectX Version: DirectX10

Is this because I have an integrated chipset?

No, it is because you don't have installed on your computer directx 9.0c, you can run directx 10 and directx 9.0c at the same time, I also have windows vista and chipset built-in, FPSC will run but you won't be able to get a lot of fps or use fullshader or too many lights because your computer will run really slow because of the video card. I had to update my video card and my video games jumped from 16 fps to 35 fps. Like I said, you will be able to run fpsc but it will run a little slower. Just make sure to install directx 9.0c then install fpsc, then, you put it in compatibility with windows XP and also like administrator. The directx that comes in the cd with fpsc will not install itself on your computer(it didn't do it for me), it will say, that you don't need directx because you already have the latest one running in your system. Try installing FPSC 9 free edition, if that one run it is possible that fpsc 10 runs too. I am not sure on that one. Good Luck.
