It will run some parts of GW and hang up in others. There is a thread in the tech section about Intel graphics and the tweaks you can use to get it to work.
If you haven't bought whatever it is yet, don't! Buy something with ATI or nVidia graphics.
If you already have it and it's a desktop, try to upgrade it to even a low end ATI or nVidia card.
If you've already bought it and it's a laptop - my condolences.

that SHOULD run GW. how well, i really don't know.

are you sure it is a GMA X3100, and not a GMA 3100? the two are different chips. the former should be fine, the latter will definitely hang in certain parts without tweaks.

i guess the best way to find out is to try, go download the client and see if it will run.

The real trial is to run the game and make your way to Rata Sum as quick as you can. If the graphics chip can render Rata Sum, it can render anything.
