For those of you with Intel Integrated Graphics, there is one thing worth checking if you are not sure. Some notebooks come with two graphics cards - an Intel one and an NVidia one. In my case, my laptop uses the Intel integrated graphics by default, but also has a somewhat more powerful NVidia Quadro chip.
By default, BGEE is basically unplayable, but I was able to fix the issues with these steps:
(1) Go into the NVidia Control Panel (generally accessible by right clicking on the desktop).
(2) Go To Manage 3D Settings, then Program Settings.
(3) Click the "Add" button and navigate to where you installed BGEE. Default is Program Files (x86)\Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition. IMPORTANT - you need to find the Baldur.exe file, located at Data\00766\Baldur.exe. If you use the BGEE.exe launcher; this fix will not work.
(4) Choose your NVidia graphics chip as the preferred processor.
(5) You can now launch BGEE normally, through the launcher.
This fix doesn't apply to the vast majority of people, but hopefully it is helpful for at least a few.
