Go to the Device Manager in the Control Panel, once that's open click the button next to the Processors label.

Sounds like you have a respectable CPU and the bare minimum graphics processor. If you have a PCI express slot a decent graphics card will do wonders for you.

I prefer Nvidia mostly because their drivers work.

He just told you. You need a graphics card. For an OpenGL game like MX Simulator I'd get the best NVIDIA card I could afford.
