Dead Space 2 "Your graphic card does not meet minimum requirements"

Hello !! I have MSI GX740 gaming laptop. Since 2010 I'm trying to run Dead Space 1 & Dead Space 2 on it without connecting external monitor to my rig and I'm unable to do that. After installing the game I got error "Your graphic card does not meet minimum requirements". I had this error since the beginning and long time ago I got answered by EA that my mobile GPU does not meet minimum requirements. I can play even Battlefield 4 on my rig, still can't play Dead Space 1, a game released in 2008. As I mentioned before, after plugging external monitor I'm able to run the game  but I won't take additional monitor with me everytime. How I'm supposed to run Dead Space 1 or Dead Space 2 on my laptop? I'm waiting for answer and I hope You won't tell me that my laptop does not meet minimum requirements....I bought retail version od DS1, collector's editions of DS 2 and I have digital DS1 on my Origin account. Pls help me.

    @MrFeiLong 

    Yes, I have actually. Your 5870 GPU is fine for this game.

    Having said that, there may be an issue with your Operating System. Can I ask that you goto the following link:

    http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate

    Then click on the Validate link at the top. Make sure that you visit the site while in Internet Explorer, otherwise it will ask you do download a small program onto your computer in order to validate.

    Ok but I will able to do that in two days because I have no laptop with me at the moment. When I'll do that I'll post a results.

    Honestly I doubt that it could be validate problem becaue I have original Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and I'm sure it's already validated. But I'll do that once again.

    @EA_Barry:

    Finally at home. I did exactly what You asked me for but with no result. Once again I "activated" my Windows OS, this time via IE. Additionally I reinstalled game but got the same error: "You graphic card.....".

    Please tell me how OS activating could help with that? Did You have some similar situations where this was helpful?
