Painkiller* game fails to launch

Painkiller* game displays an error while attempting to launch, "Error: could not execute Direct X 9 Renderer".  

This game requires a graphics adapter with hardware T&L (Transform and Lighting) support to run. Intel® graphics controllers do not support hardware T&L. T&L can be done by the processor (in software) with acceptable performance in most cases, but since the game specifically checks for hardware T&L, it fails to run.
