How do you fix PvZ GW2 crashes and stuff?

So when my PC finished the download for the game I launched it. Windows sent me a message saying I need Intel Driver xx.xx 42.51. I could not find such a thing so I browsed the forums for ways to fix this. I didn't find anything really good but I found a post saying its in DxDiag. I wondering if this has anything to do with why it doesn't work but here is the DxDiag link:

After doing that I tried launching the game without doing anything. The game working for a while and I watched the intro and the trailer, and everything was fine. But then when the game was "connecting to EA servers" Everthing disappeared except for the homescreen and Windows said: Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 has Unexpectedly stopped working.

Plz Help me! ☹️ but anyways, I have my Fingers Crossed! 🤞

    Also I can't even play the game! I feel like refunding it, but it seems like an awesome game! 

  • Make sure you run it on your dedicated graphics card, and not the integrated weak intel one.

    This game has very specific system requirements, and while you elected NOT to actually provide more than one single screen from the DxDiag report, it does reveal you have a very slow CPU, well below the minimum.

    MINIMUM

    Okay thanks mate!

    I found out that I don't have the right intel.

    It says that I need to have i5 but I only have i3.

    I've refunded the game so I get my money back and I have $80 on hand and I have no idead what to do now.

    🥳 YAY!, Although I do wonder if this is a good or bad thing... ☹️ or 🙂 ?

    If it were me, and I did not now have any actual game-capable PC of any kind, I would use it to save toward a purpose-built STATIONARY PC, nothing mobile.  It can be less expensive, since it has no expensive batteries or extremely micro-sized parts, but can be a great deal smaller than the iconic great huge towers that gamers once desired.  It will last longer, because it allows useful upgrades. 

    It will be kinder to the environment because it can actually be properly recycled to extract valuable metals and minerals for reuse.  If you have no problems with space in your computer area, a used desktop / tower from a thrift store can be a very economical starting point, with a new CPU / GPU / PSU right away, and a new motherboard in a year or so. 

    Otherwise, here's a space-saving smaller tower that affords a lot of quality for a very low cost:
