Hello harry potter333 and welcome to G2G!

You currently have an Intel integrated graphics card this is simply not powerful enough to run the game and isn't even support by it anyway.
You'll need to upgrade the graphics card to play the game.

[harry potter333]

do you know what type of graphics card i need?

[ZEUS_GB]

If your PC is a Pavilion a730n then you have a 16X PCI Express slot which basically means you can have any of the latest and greatest graphics cards if you wanted to. I run a Geforce 6800GT now GS and it runs at nearly all max settings.

thanks man i will see if this works thanks for all the help

[harry potter333]

[im sorry to bother you again but do you know about how much i could purchse a new graphics card for and also will i be able to put it in myself or have them do it and if they do it around what will that cost me this should be my last qeustion for a while thanks for all the help man.

[ZEUS_GB]

That's ok it no bother.

The price of graphics cards varies from card to card, from manufacturer to manufacturer and of course from country to country.
You can fit the card yourself but if you don't know how to or don't feel comfortable doing it then I would recommend asking a professional to do it.
The fitting of a graphics card doesn't really take much longer than 10 minutes so I don't think it should be too expensive. I even noticed my local shop fitting them for free.
