It's obvious that the integrated graphic card is enough to play old DOS games. However, if you plan to use the computer for at least two years and you do want to play the newer games which will come out, then you need to think ahead. a 256 megs card is the minimum I'd recommend unless you want to end up with a new computer in a year and a half...
That's horribly incorrect. Warcraft III does work on even a crappy Intel chipset released today, my room PC has it and Warcraft III runs absolutely fine as I said before, your computer must just have been a junker with a crappy processor and RAM as well.

@_r.u.s.s. - The only time drivers are an issue with running older 3D titles on an integrated chipset is when some moron who has no clue what he's doing attempts to install the drivers himself.
