    You have a 2 core CPU. The game requires a 4 core. Your video card should run the game but only on low settings.

    You can't play the game with this PC. It requires a 4 core CPU. I've heard of a workaround for this but I have no idea what it is. You might try a Google search for that. But even if you get it to work it will have all kinds of performance problems.

    Are you really expecting some help after using something stolen? Get those 2 euros, and buy a legal version.
