I don't know from personal experience, but I would say 99% chance that it will miserably fail. It can barely do World of Warcraft at 640x480, and San Andreas is a little more graphically intense.

I disagree, GTA:SA doesnt seem to have that good of graphics, anyway i just installed it and I got gfx errors. On other forums people said it runs fine.
Probably not. You can't expect to run at native resolution with low end graphics anyways. Just turn down the resolution until it plays.Can the Intel 950 handle San Andreas at 1400x900?
Vice City plays OK on my GMA 950 laptop at 1024x768.
Intel has drivers available on their site. You might have to install it manually (extract intel drivers, go to device manager and use update driver) instead of the setup exe if you get an error.

People have had TONS of graphics problems with the Intel 950, because the feature list is crap, ad the performance is pathetic. The compatibility is so horrible, Intel has to maintain a list to give you any idea whether your game will work or not. You can also check out the desktop 845 chipset compatibility list here, I find it funny that they actually maintain SEPARATE lists for a part that is virtually identical...in fact, I find it even funnier that the lists have different games!
The worst part is, the list is woefully incomplete. There are less than 100 games on that list, some of them three year old or more.
Unfortunately, you are out of luck. San Andreas doesn't work with the GMA 950. Go buy a real graphics card if you want to game.
Haha, I love the Quake4 entry:
Dur!
Quake 4* game is not playable due to low frame rates (frames per second or FPS).
Intel is not aware of a fix or work-around for this issue. Contact the game manufacturer for further updates, patches or support.
Dur!
