Could anyone walk me through what we need to do to get the game to work?

you are using intergrated graphics. This means your video card is part of the system board. It does not support gaming. Especially those games that require direct x 9.

If you have an AGP port available or a PCI-X port available then you can have the option of upgrading your video card.

Do you know the make/model of your pc?
