    the problem is that you have an integrated graphics chip that borrows RAM from your overall RAM amount.

    All the new expansions require a minimum of 4 GB of RAM which you don't have because of this.

    You should be able to ignore the message and play anyways but you might run into performance issues.

    Check your manual to see if it is possible to add more RAM (very likely) then take it to a shop to have the RAM added. (remember to ask around for prices).

    Other than adding RAM if possible (which will of course cost money) or shopping around for a more adequate computer, you can just try playing and see how well it goes.

    You can also try getting a refund for the packs you bought (Dine Out should be fine) and play without those.
