    It means you need a dedicated video card with 64+ MB of RAM, and unfortunately, not the integrated GPU you have. You don't have a video card.

    Most games will tell you to have a video card, but I built a computer for a friend a few months back with integrated video that could play GTA San Andreas fine, so not all hope is lost. If you bought a Dell or something along those lines you probably can't put in a video card anyways.

    A lot of cheap Dells have motherboards without AGP or PCIE ports. I guess you could buy a PCI video card in that case, but those are so outdated, what would be the point?

    There are PCI video cards with 128/256/512 of dedicated memory that can run Direct-X 9.0 games, they just are expensive and inferior. Most gaming site have video card testing, but if your relying on a motherboard-based Video card to play anything complicated, forget it.
