After doing a bit of digging around, I've read that you have an onboard 64mb graphics card.

The Evolution GT is a fairly newish game (being around a year old now).

Unforunatly, there isn't much to say other then buy a new video card. Perhaps even look at upgrading your whole computer.

You could try these drivers for youre vga , but i think GaRHaR is right and that you would need to upgrade before you can play that game.
