Wanna play Skyrim on your netbook? Here’s another way.
Remember our past attempts to get Skyrim to work?
Currently, a mod can allow you to play Skyrim without any driver-side modding. The Ultra Low Graphics Mod for low-end PCs by Iyzik has compacted all that is necessary for you to play a sort-of-playable game on your netbook.
The ULG download contains a script that modifies Skyrim’s .ini files beyond what the game allows you to. This means playing with lower-end textures that even a Morrowind player would describe as “ghastly”.
However, our initial tests show that this mod only gets you a maximum of 15 frames-per-second at 800×600 pixels when played on our system that has a Nvidia ION 2 processor. An error pops up when window mode and 800×450 pixels was selected.
Intel GMA integrated graphics users are still out of luck as the demands of the game are too high.
You’re better off with the driver-side mod.

What would happen if you tried the ULG mod combined with the driver-side mod?
Good question, I don’t know!
