Intel GMA3600 and GMA3650 is based on PowerVR SGX545, the difference is GMA3600 clocked at 400Mhz and GMA3650 at 600MHz compare to PowerVR which clocked at 200MHz. We can say that GMA3600 and GMA3650 is not really an Intel GPU but a rebadged PowerVR SGX545.

DirectX and Games Capability
Intel Originally claimed both GPUs support DirectX 10.1 but due to driver issues it only support DirectX 9.0c. This is not a big problem to discuss, because the GPUs itself cannot handle DirectX 10 games very well. Here is simple summary from Windows Experience Index:
Graphic: Desktop Performance for Windows Aero : 5.6
Gaming Graphic : 3D Business and Gaming Graphics : 3.2
Drivers For GMA 3600 and GMA 3650
I think it is important to list out all support available on one page, sadly I didn't found any solution for windows XP 64-bit. If you know or have information about it, do let me know in the comment section below.
Requirement:
- The software should be installed on system with at least 1GB of system memory (RAM).
- Intel® Atom™ D2500, Intel® Atom™ D2550, Intel® Atom™ D2700
Intel® Atom™ N2100, Intel® Atom™ N2600, and Intel® Atom™ N2800 - Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 3600 Series (GMA3600 and GMA3650)
I found a driver posted by someone on the internet which worked with XP. I believe he/she already modded the drivers so that it is compatible with GMA3600. (more info below)

Windows 8 32-bit :
Since Intel does not plan to provide updates for this GPU anymore. We can only use Windows 7 drivers which show slight improvement over standard VGA graphic driver which automatically installed by Windows 8.
If resulting in error you need to troubleshoot compatibility (right click on the driver and select troubleshoot compatibility) and set to windows 7.
Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 64-bit Drivers:
Currently Intel and your notebook manufacture site doesn't provide any support for 64-bit. The only drivers that most people use is:
GFX_Vista_Win7_64_8.15.8.1050_Beta5.exe
You can google it for download link because currently the file hosted on the original server no longer exist.
if you google GFX_Vista_Win7_64_8.15.8.1050 it is still available on intel website, I cannot provide the link because Intel always changes their URL.
Just install directly and reboot.
