Im hoping to buy WoW (world of warcraft) this week and i have checked all the system requirements and my laptop will be able to hold them... the only one i cant find is the graphics card on my laptop... it says that WoW needs a 32 mg graphics card but i dont know how to find out what mine has..... Any help?

just this sound right... Name: VIA/S3G UniChrome --- Igp (other information) Approx. Total Memory: 64.0mb Does this mean i have 64mb graphics card?
but... its an onboard "graphics card" like most laptops have and would maybe run WoW but i wouldnt expect too much form it :-/ it has the VRAM but not the raw power to put into the game.
because i dont really play games on it i play on a xbox360... this laptop is for work use but i still like to play games and my friends have it and i ent gunna spend about £500 on a pc just for games
There's no way you can play WoW with that card.. even if it works there will be so much lag, it wouldn't be playable.
The only difference between a computer for work and a computer for gaming is the graphics card, which is what, 100 bucks if you arent a hardcore gamer. That chip probably doesn't support pixel shader 1 ( I think WoW needs it) so it won't run.
You can play WoW but You will not be Able to enjoy or see some content. Like Raiding with 10+ people including mages who cast blizzard or reign of fire all over your screen - your video card will skip
