Most likely you will need to upgrade to a separate graphics card. That onboard graphics solution is just not fit for many games, especially the latest generation of games being published.
 
You can try using the latest drivers from Via's site just in case there is a fix for this, I doubt it however
 
Also make sure you have DX9.0c installed as well
