The Intel Video Card Drivers is probably for the on-board graphics. Download Drivers specific to the Make and Model of your graphics card assuming you have one that isn't on-board.

I've used to have the same problem also with Intel card. I got it solved by reinstalling Windows (company build [recovery manager (ESC on start)]

It requires the correct drivers probably... Can't asure that, but post more info such a screenshot of the error given by gta_sa.exe when tried to run.

I've got an Acer Aspire 5730Z, drivers can be downloaded from here:
