According to my laptop, (Inspiron 1545) my video card is a Mobile Intel(R) 4 series express chipset family. I know which video cards are good so don't give me a list please, I'd just like to know if i need a better one.|||You don't have a graphics card at all. You are running in an integrated graphics environment, which basically means that the "card" is built-in to the motherboard rather than having it's own dedicated card (and resources). Recently, integrated graphics have been getting better, but ultimately having an actual card is better for performance. One good test is to run Doom 3 on highest settings. If it runs seamlessly, it should be able to run most of the current games, albeit on reduced settings.
Plus, laptops aren't built for performance anyway.|||You technically don't even have a graphics "card", you have an integrated graphics "chip" which leaches off other system parts (cpu, ram, etc.) in order to make up a graphics card, but they are very slow and really can't do much 3d stuff well, you might, again MIGHT, be able to play oblivion since its an older game and it sounds like the rest of your system is good, but i wouldn't count on it. certainly no cheating and adding 10k watermellons (lol). Your laptop wasn't made with gaming in mind, and that means that it doesn't have an extra slot for a graphics card to go, you can't upgrade. Sorry, i would try oblivion, but don't get your hopes up.
