Graphics Issue

I was in the beta for this game and it worked great. I am just now getting around to buying the game (just bought it today) and I am having issues with Graphics.

I installed the client and went to run it. It came up with a message saying my Drivers were out dated so I updated my drivers. Now when ever I start the game it goes to the loading screen and then just freezes there. If I minimize the client and then bring it back up I can get to the character selection screen but the graphics are all fuzzy and really unplayable.

After reading some on these forums I know what you guys are going to say but I hope I am wrong!

My Graphics card is:

Integrated graphics using nVidia GeForce 6150SE

This is the same machine I used during the beta and like I said it worked great. Any one know what I can do to make it work with out buying a new graphics card or is there some way I can get my money back if I am unable to play?

    If you can get to your character screen; that should mean you can change game video settings.
    I'd try changing the game resolution to lower. A fussy screen usually means your operating at the wrong resolution. Maybe try 800x600 if it’s in the list.

    Think your prob might be, that you LCD can handle full HD but you Integrated Graphics cannot.

    Good luck hope this helps:)

    I know you dont want to hear it but getting a new video card would be best.:(

    Well I rolled back my drivers and I played for a few hours. Great game though I wish some of the features were included that they promised us during the Reveal at the Star Trek Convention back 3 years or so ago. Such as Fleets being able to build their own starbases and things like that. I also wish that there was more to do on your bridge and other explorable parts of your ship.

    My current drivers are from like 2007 so I am going to try to update them to some newer ones but not to the latest since those are the ones that I couldn't get to work.
