I think that means your video device doesn't support 2.0 shaders or something of the sort. You'd need a new video card.

If you have Vista try running AcesHigh program as administrator. Some things may be locked otherwise, unless you install outside the program files directory. Vista has that locked down unless you run as admin.

That's called integrated video. It's not really a video card it just saps CPU and RAM to fulfill the duties of a graphics card. You should definitely get a video card.
