    No, the only thing you can really do is keep the drivers up-to-date and Windows tidy; by that I mean keep it defragged, secure, etc. Intel's GMA won't run that game no matter what you do, unfortunately.

    You are limited by the GPU which you have an integrated one. There is nothing else you can do about it.
