From the main web page (http://www.hitechcreations.com), the minimum system requerements are:
 
Quote
 
Windows 95/98/ME/2K
DirectX 7.0a
DX 7 compatible video card
PII 333 or better
Sound card and speakers
Internet connection

In my opinion, this looks like it hasn't been updated for the last upgrade.  I think you need DX 8.  It is free to download, so I would suggest loading it and see how it runs off line.  

From my experience, I had a AMD K2 450, 256M RAM with a GeForce 2mx video card, Soundblaster Live sound card and it was getting hard to play at 1024X768, 32bit color.  The resolution can be set back so it has a playable frame rate.  I upgraded to a AMD 1.1G (all other components the same) and I have no problems getting high frame rates.

There is a difference between "minimum" and practical (for good playability) system requirements.

Personally I'd say:

P2 400 mhz
Tnt2 Ultra or higher
64 Mb ram
Dx8.0a

This would be the recommended minimal system.
