read what it says
"your graphics card is below our min specs"
whats the specs of your graphics card?
so upgrade your graphics card to a better one

Inbuilt or onboard graphics tend to suck pretty hard when it comes to gaming that require a lot of graphical processing power!

if its a laptop then your probably out of luck as an upgrade most of the time a graphics upgrade isn't possible

If its a Desktop or Tower unit then suggest getting a proper dedicated graphics card and not using the one that's built into the motherboard!

can i upgrade the software of my graphics card then?
or have to buy a new one and install it?
how do u find the graphics card specs?

do you have a laptop or a desktop/tower??

if its a desktop machine or a tower and not a laptop you can buy a cheap graphics card and install it yourself

your specs told me that its a via chipset which is usually onboard (built into the computers motherboard) and not a seperate one these are usually in laptops or in tower/desktops that come as a cheap bundle or pre built package ...
there are guides on youtube and the net on how to fit graphics cards yourself

Next time, run 'dxdiag' to check your specs or download CPU-Z and GPU-Z.
