@Hxppyros3s This is exactly where you were supposed to put the dxdiag. And the immediate issue is obvious: your laptop doesn't have a proper graphics driver installed, so it's using the Basic Display Driver instead. That's enough to make the game lag on any system.
You can download and install the newest driver from Acer here:

Under Drivers, select the VGA driver, download it, and run it as an admin: right-click on the installer and select "Run as administrator." Then restart your computer before testing. If you still get lag, please run another dxdiag.
Your laptop also has very little free storage. This can't really be helped, given the extremely small size of the drive overall, but it would still be a good idea to delete anything you don't absolutely need. Go through the Downloads folder as well, looking for anything you've already used, for example the driver installer once you've reinstalled the driver. Empty the recycle bin when you're done.
I'm so sorry, how do I run it as an admin..?
