    Your IGP (G41 Express) appears to be rather slow compared to the requirements:  I can't imagine it will work at all well for you, no matter how low you set both the graphics and the screen resolution.  . 

    Videocard Name  Passmark  . G3D Mark            Rank
    . . . . . . . . . . . .                        (higher is better)  (lower is better)

    Chipset Intel G41 Express . . .  57    . .   .           836

    GeForce 7800 GTX    . .        229      . .  .          571

    Operating System:

        Windows XP or later

    RAM:

        Windows XP: 1.5GB RAM
        Windows Vista, Windows 7 and above: 2GB RAM

    Star Wars: The Old Republic requires a video card that has a minimum of 256MB of onboard RAM as well as support for Shader 3.0 or better.

    Examples include:

        ATI X1800 or better
        nVidia 7800 or better
               
    Hard drive space

    For a fresh installation of the game, 37GB of free space is recommended.

    NOTE: The size of the SW:TOR game folder on your system will increase over time.

    DVD-ROM drive – 8x speed or better (required for installation from physical editions only).

    As SW:TOR is an MMO, a reliable Internet connection is required to play.
