The processor requires a GPU (graphics processing unit) to offload the T&L calculations in order to render the game correctly. This improves the performance by freeing up the CPU. Aida is telling you that this function is not available on your system. If the video adapter supports GPU than you need to obtain the correct most up to date drivers and install them. Multiple issues are involved, CPU speed, amount of RAM installed, the correct video adapter, the latest drivers, your current hardware configuration,etc.
