I have read the min requirements, but don't know how my configuration compares since its different manufacturers. can anyone tell me where I'm lacking. I bought this system 4 months ago and was told that it would handle every game out so I'm pretty disappointed to be getting this message.
error:

in device manager, under display adapters, under NVIDIA nForce 750a SLI, under properties, in driver tab:
Driver Provider: NVIDIA
Driver Version 8.15.11.8593
so i assume its an NVIDIA driver. is it the right one?
this is the latest version http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_vista_win7_32bit_15.49.html try it as will update all your nvidia drivers then see what happens with the games. if still get error then start looking for a proper videocard that will fit in your motherboard & case plus make certain your psu can handle the new card.
