Intel GMA 950 + Lineage 2?

[urd]

Hello

I'm writing here because my knowledge about Video Cards is poor... I have just bought MAXDATA Notebook:
Chipset: Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset Family
Graphics: Intel GMA 950
Proc: Intel Core 2 CPU T7200 (2 x 2GHz)
RAM: 1GB
O/S: Win XP Home SP 2

I have installed all drivers from MAXDATA Utility CD, then I have updated it with latest graphic card and chipset drivers (taken from Intel website), and installed DirectX 9.0c(from NFS Carboon CD) and Lineage 2 Chronicle 4.

I run Lineage 2 and there is one thing I can't understand. In video options "Anti-Aliasing" and "Shader" options are disabled (they are grey and I can't change it). My friend has got ATI integrated graphic card on his Notebook and he has this options enabled... I have read that Intel GMA 950 provides Pixel Shader so I wonder why I can't use it in L2. Mabye I do something wrong or have to enable it somewhere else.

If anybody can advise me what can I do please post

I dont think the GMA950 can support anti-aliasing, but im not possitive.

The GMA950 is a high-end integrated solution, but it's not the best in 3D games.

I know that it is not the best solution for gaming but L2 works on it quite good. I haven't read about Anti-Aliasing but if I understand its specificatnion good, Pixel Shader and Vertex Shader should be working...
