The game reportedly works well with ARB on Intel 3000, which I believe is worse than what you have. Since we load 99% of our graphics data very early in the game, there would be errors from the start, so I don't think you're hitting a graphics memory limit (don't have the data to rule it out, though). This is a complete guess, but maybe for some reason your graphics driver is trying to run the game in software emulation mode? Just in case, you might want to update your graphics card driver. If possible, get the official Intel driver, even if there's an HP-branded driver for your laptop.
