any help??

ur system is capable to play that game...but Intel Extreme Graphics does not have Hardware TnL (Transform and Lighting), this may be the culprit...
download DirectX here...

since u have onboard Intel Extreme Graphics chipset, u need to specify ur chipset....u search for the drivers for ur motherboard here...please update all the drivers i.e audio, video, inf etc...
