Sorry, I'd not like to suggest you to burn your laptop off. Mining any altcoin with the laptop is worthless, you'll lose more in electricity cost than the value of altcoin mined. Either set up the GPU mining machine (with great graphics cards) or forget the mining, buy the altcoins instead.

Mining on ANY laptop is very likely to overheat the laptop and cause it to fail quickly.
VERY BAD IDEA.

 In any event, Intel graphics are so low performance (AMD APUs blow them away, but even APUs don't mine very much on the stuff they CAN mine on) it's just not worth even trying.
 Intel CPUs are fairly good at CPU-centric coins, but more the quad cores and up and the Xenon many-cores intended for servers.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

Don't mine with laptop, only mine if you have desktop or special mining rig. Go play a game with that laptop. Smiley
