    1) Get more RAM - or close all other programs in the background (like Anti-Virus or Windows live Messenger)

    2) Update your Video Card Drivers

    3) Do a defrag

    4) Do "Disk Cleanup"

    5) Check for Game Patches

    Hope this Helps :)

    That would be because you're running a crusty turd of an integrated video card. You're above the minimum specs, but not by much.

    go to the games video settings and choice a lower screen resolution eg 800x600 pixels is a good one, it will speed up the game but on the other hand the focusing distance wise will look slightly out of focus but still playable
