First thing to try is to use no configuration files. Intel by default requires no configuration.
With that old thing though, you might run into problems, typical error message involving something like "GPU hung". If you get that, check this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=100812&p=3. Try the LinearAlloc thing first. If that doesn't work, using shadow is the last resort that will for sure work.

Please use [ code ] tags for pasting code https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode as it makes your posts much easier to read.
There's a problem with old Intel cards and the current Intel drivers. Unfortunately using older drivers means downgrading xorg-server and friends. Read about downgrading in the wiki.
I'm currently using xf86-video-intel 2.13.0-4 and xorg-server 1.9.4-1 and things are OK. My card
