No landscape

★★★ Newbie

I've recently bought SimCity and noticed that there's no landscape in it, only blue background. I've tried everything, from updating my drivers to re-downloading the game. One problem is that when I open the game it shows that my drivers aren't updated when in fact I know that my drivers are up to date, I even checked the version through regedit. Could the problem be with my graphics card?

You do not HAVE any graphics card at all, and your graphics drivers are in fact YEARS too old, if that terrible IGP was actually adequate.
