the only thing that failed is the processer which is 861 whie the game needed 1,000... so why is it doing this? anyways to have it run? or it just loading very slowly...

Do you have the latest version of DirectX installed on your machine?

If you do, then why is it giving you the option of installing DirectX 9.0c?

Look and make sure. Even if you think you've got it right, check anyway. I've fixed several programming problems by looking over what I thought was correct.

Your CPU isn't fast enough. Please read it. It needs at least 1000Mhz to run, you only have an 861Mhz CPU.

But it should still work even though its gonna be slow... like I did when my computer sucked and it can still run my star trek game... but its about 200 mhz off and it should still run... dont know still why it done that.

Note: It's not my problem that you can't make sure your computer has the power to run a game before you buy it.
