    The graphics card is an onboard (IGP, intergrated graphics card), these are not known for their gaming prowess.

    You don't specify wether you are using XP, or Vista. If the latter, vista does struggle with only 1GiB of ram, so as ram is so cheap right now it may be a good time to head over to crucial and buy some more (http://www.crucial.com/uk/.)

    Unfortunately there is not much you can do, bar making sure that you are using the latest drivers.
