Given the 945GM started showing up in mid/late 2005, and the 915G/GM was out at the beginning of 2004, that chipset predates Vista by 2 years. Given Windows 8 is now fully hardware-accelerated for the UI, you can't get by with the old legacy XPDM driver subsystem anymore, because that doesn't support the things Windows 8's UI now require. Graphics - Older IntelĀ® graphics controllers and Microsoft Windows 7* operating system XPDM driver support does not exist in Win8, and Intel did not release an updated WDDM driver (and, in fact, didn't update it for WDDM 1.0 in Vista, so I guess it's no surprise they didn't write a WDDM 1.1 for Win7 or WDDM 1.2 for Win8). Well the blame is accurately stated - the 915GM driver does not support WDDM, only XPDM. ![]()
