So it's below requirements.
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
Direct X 10 card.
Error says game requires DirectX 11 card.
=============================================
I looked and I do not see any way to work around this on the internet. There may be a way with dxcpl.exe but you shouldn't attempt that unless your confident you know what your doing. I'm not sure if I have any reasonable DX10 cards around but if I do I might test using dxcpl.exe.
Here is the method.. but I DO NOT suggest you even attempt it. It likely won't work and at worst you could mess something up.

Even if that worked (which I doubt), the game isn't likely to be playable.
Best thing is to upgrade your GPU. That's the only sure fire way she'll work.
