That is very confusing.
Are you saying your DL is not working, correctly?
Are you also asking if your built in graphic chip (if I understand) will work?
Please list your problems and your current drivers.

DL has a history of problems with Intel video chips.
It wont run on my Notebook that has an Intel 915/GMS Express chipset. When I start the game, the screen flashes, then nothing else happens....
If you look in the file DEBUG.LOG, in the Dungeon Lords base directory, you may see what DL thinks is wrong....

I had the same problem initially. DL won't work with Intel integrated graphics chipsets. Something about lacking hardware 3D emulation. It's in the readme. I don't remember the details, but I do have a solution. Use this:
http://www.3dfxzone.it/dir/tools/3d_analyze/
Install this, run it, and select the DL exe file. Select "force SW TnL" in performance, and run. Worked for me with the 900 chipset, and I assume would work for the others as well.
