    The only way around it is to play on a computer that can handle the game. It has to be played on a computer that meets the requirements to play the game. It requires 2.4 CPU or better. A medium level to higher end Nvidia or AMD card and the more ram the better for running the animation.

    This gives a lot of info on what cards will and will not run the game

    Not that you have a bad laptop but it is just geered towards streaming movies and surfing the web. Its not made for gaming and this game requires a gaming laptop or a decent desktop computer to a gaming desktop computer. .

        Beacuse you may have gotten lucky and it somewhat played but wont any more. Your putting stress on a computer that is not made for gaming and can not handle this game. Your card is not made for gaming and eventually this game will ruin your card and could ruin your computer. Once you ruin a card on a laptop your done you will need a new computer.
