Graphics card does not support hardware T&L

Question

New game from www.virtualrc.com.   Problem when you run game : 'video card does not support harware T&L' T & L - Short for Transform and Lighting. T&L is a type of video technology that takes all the 3D information that used to be handled by the computer processor and gives it to the GPU. This enables a more complex 3D environment by adding a higher polygon count and improving the lighting at the same time it allows the computer processor to handle other tasks.   Why does my D505 video card not support this - I only got the pc in May this year???

'Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics Controller' is what's written in the Device Manager.   I think it may be on-board.   thanks.

The video is part of the chipset and is likely the problem. It's not noted for 3D performance. Unfortunately, it is also not upgradeable.
