I understand why this can be a bit of a hard one. Have you tried contacting either freedom scientific or sight and sound to confirm this? I have seen several laptops and desctops that uses some variations of intel HD cards and neither of them had problems running jaws. Obviously I don't want to be responsible for telling you to get the laptop, but from my own experience on working with/fixing some of those machines, jaws incompatibilitty with the graphics card was not a problem. -----Original Message----- From: Gary Robinson Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2012 10:03 PM To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Jaws compatibility with Intel HD graphics 3000 Thanks Vanja, given the inability to return the machine if Jaws doesn't work and the lack of hard info from Freedom on the subject I am a little nervous about choosing a new high spec laptop. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vanja Sudar" <vanja@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2012 3:57 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Jaws compatibility with Intel HD graphics 3000 > Not sure about laptop, but I'm using intel hd graphic card on my desctop > and > have no problems, at least not with jaws 12 and 13. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Gary Robinson > Sent: Sunday, February 05, 2012 6:27 PM > To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [jaws-uk] Jaws compatibility with Intel HD graphics 3000 > > Hi, > I am thinking of buying a new laptop, the SONY VIO series lookinteresting. > Has anyone on the list any experience of their compatibility with JAWS > (13). > They use the Intel HD 3000 graphics chipset and I have a vague feeling > that > I saw something about Intel HD graphics on this list a little while ago. > > Any views? > > Thanks > > Gary > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
