This game requires at least Shader Model 3.0?

Maybe... WHO WANTS TO KNOW!?

Heh. Couldn't resist.

[Tingle]

I'll do the directx and see if it does anything, where can I update my drivers? Sorry

[Spitfire]

First you need to find out what kind of videocard is inside your computer.

if you have AMD radeon videocard: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx

if you have nVidia videocard: http://www.geforce.co.uk/drivers

if you have intel HD videocard: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/

ATI Radeon x1250 series

anyone please help

[Flyingbox]

You're running on integrated graphics. The X1250 doesn't support shader 3.0. It supports 2.0b.
Since you have it on a laptop there is no way for you to upgrade other than to buy a brand new computer. Shader capability is decided by hardware, not software or drivers.
You should probably upgrade soon anyway. Your computer is easily considered obsolete.

You cannot upgrade your shaders if your hardware does NOT support it. It will not run, I used to have that same laptop configuration and it is utter crap.
