I have the same on-board graphics in my machine. My machine only became stable after I installed a more powerful graphics card (set me back about $80 and drives me crazy with fucking fan noise). The 6150 worked most of the time in my machine from about two months after Vista came out til SP1. It was never stable after SP1. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting and trying different drivers and downloads from Microsoft with no luck.
I don't think it is realistic to expect stability from vista on machines running integrated low-powered graphics. Vista is garbage on office-type computers.
Edited to add: my card asked for a 400w power supply and I didn't know what that meant at the time. I installed it and it works. I found out later that I have a 300w power supply. *shrug face*
