What do I need to run these games on my netbook?

I try to run Jamestown on my netbook but an error says the game requires a video card that supports shader model 2.0 or greater. Is there any software that can make up for this? And for Amnesia: the dark descent, my computer doesn't have H&L. Thanks

for god sake ppl, get a real pc for gaming, and if really wanna game on laptop please go get your self a Asus gaming laptop or any other gaming laptops out there, just my 2 cent. and no u can not run a software to add something your hardware won't support.

WTF lol it's bad enough people try to game on $500 laptops - net books are barely good enough for web surfing let alone 3d gaming ... you can't game on a netbook don't even try.

You can run low demanding games, but anything more will just cripple it.

Lol I remember trying to run a simple steam game on my netbook. It was like a geometry wars knock off, but it was less stressful.

NetBook.....
My friend had the same problem playing Fallout on his.
Netbooks are fitted only with an Intel Atom Core, 1GB Ram and a 32MB Card.

If you want to game on a laptop, i suggest a Better Laptop

2 reasons why wow might work.

Your Netbook graphics are good

and Wow doesnt use as much GPU Memory

I also own a netbook (using it to post this comment actually), and I have found that they can run most older games (5 years old or older) fairly good. Trying to play anything less than 5 years old is just not possible unless the games is not demanding at all on PC specs. I would also recommend you upgrade your memory from 1GB to 2GB even for web surfing, as my netbook really struggled to run Windows 7 starter with only 1GB of RAM. I keep a few older games installed on the netbook in case I am traveling, but almost all of my gaming is done on my desktop.
