update on looking into this, as I am currently thinking about nabbing a laptop when the tax return gets here and a lot of the deals have the cheezy embedded GPU's with no dedicated memory. There is actually a thread at the Intel community forums about this very issue you may want to bookmark. There was a post around the new year stating specific drivers to use as a workaround for both Win7 and Win8 (note, it is an older driver and may screw up newer games):

Still no real fix from Intel found as of the first of the month. Might want to keep an eye on this thread to see if they find a more acceptable solution.
