Computers Graphics Card Doesn't Meet Minimum Requirements?

Ive been trying to download and install alot of things lately and it keeps coming up with an error message "your graphics card/video card doesnt meet the minimal requirements...". so i downloaded a directx diagnostics tool, installed the directx web installer with software updates and it still said the same thing. so i was wondering.... is it possible to upgrade the capabilities of the graphics card by downloading software and updates? without having to buy a new graphics/video card?

Update:

If my driver needs updating. how do i update it?

    Update your graphics driver. May solve the issue and may not.

    Make sure you have the drivers of your graphics card installed. Otherwise there is no way you can "boost" your graphics power. Buy a new graphics card, you can get a good one for 100,-

    Find out what card you have by running dxdiag, display tab, 2nd line down on left is what you have. Visit the game makers support site and see what the min specs are to play.
