Is it possible to update my video card online for a computer game?

I just bought SPORE at the store and installed it on my computer. However, it won't run because it says my video card isn't good enough. I currently have "Plug & Play monitor on Intel(R) 82865G graphics controller". Is it possible to download something online to upgrade this so I can play this game?



I already opened and installed the software so I don't think I can return it the to the store. Please help!|||No you need a good Video Card.
