Do i need to buy a new graphics card or is there another way to get the game to run??

You'll need a new graphics card, the game needs pixel 1.1 shader to work.

You should also definitely get 3D Analyzer.. just search it on google. Im playing RTW Alexander (which requires GFX card) on my laptop at the moment and it works very well for me... even though i dont actually have a GFX card!
When an error comes up saying what is wrong with the game (eg. "Pixel shader not found" or whatever) you can just change that through this program.

You don't have a graphics card, you have an integrated graphics chip, so yes you do need one.

You can get a nvidia 7600gs for probably 60-70 pounds if you want cheaper than that you can go with a 7300. Bear in mind the cheaper the card the less good the game will look.

You may have to buy a new computer because the 2400 does not have an AGP slot, so your screwed.

As I told this guy on the .com forums 24 hours ago, he can get a PCI video card like the X1300PCI version etc but those are horrendously slow.
