EA QV TeamCan you check if the crashes occur when you play in lowered GFX settings and in windowed mode?
In the game's Graphics Preferences, ensure you have the following options enabled:
- Graphics Quality Preset = Very Low
- Resolution: 1280 x 720
- Window Mode = Windowed
- Visible Character Limit = Low
- Grass Quality = 0
- Shadow Quality = Off
If the game still crashes, can you attach a DxDiag to this thread?
I have played the game in "very low" mode, and it still crashed but it gave me a pop up telling me that SWTOR has stopped working. I got a new graphics card and decided, for the kicks, to boot the graphics present up to very high and I presume that that could be the root of the more frequent crashing? I haven't tried the game in windowed mode.
I'm attaching my dxdaig (in images), and computer properties (because the cpu does come up in dxdaig).

So first, Direct X not regocnizing your Processor is probably an issue you'll need to address, but it's kind of outside my scope.
Second, I see you're on a 32bit OS, and we've seen some fairly common crashing issues related to the limitations of a 32bit OS. Here's one workaround from @proxos666:
[Only for use in 32bit Operating Systems]
To enable
1.Right-click Command Prompt in the Accessories program group of the Start menu. Click Run as Administrator.
2.At the command prompt, enter "bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072"(minus the " ")
3.Push Enter key and Restart the computer.
To disable after testing the game if no affect
1.Right-click on Command Prompt in the Accessories program group of the Start menu. Click Run as Administrator.
2.At the command prompt, enter "bcdedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa"
3.Push Enter Key and Restart the computer.
