Nah, it's not about intel. We discussed it earlier & thought it might be something with the newer nvidia cards, because there is never an ATi user who gets color depth issues and crashes/black screens. Every time someone has that problem, they seemed to have an nvidia card. So obviously mirage cards and nvidia have something in common, they fail to render some dx9/opengl feature. (This usually happens when a large multi-coloured screen object is animated in cutscene, or shortly before it appears).
If you buy a cheap replacement, it would be probably wiser to buy ATi card since it doesn't seem to have these issues.
