Hello loganmmxd,

Thank you for joining the Intel communities.

The Intel processor that is in your system comes with an integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600, this graphics cannot be replace, you will need to buy a new system with an older integrated graphics in order to run older games.

You could try an older graphics version; you can download it at the following link:
