Can anybody help me out here?

I would like to play this game, it's sprite based, and turn based, so I suspect it shouldn't need to much in the way of graphics.

It's requirements are:
Intel Pentium III 500 MHz or better
* 128 MB RAM
* 8 MB Direct3D compatible graphics card
* Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista or newer
* Requires DirectX 9.0c or newer

I have a pentium 4 with 3 GHZ, 500mb Ram, a 82865g intel Graphics Controller chip with 96 mb, Windows XP and DirectX 9.0c.

When I launch the game it Crashes straight away, with no useful error message. I have 3D Analyze, but no idea of how to configure it (I tried copying the set-up for Fifa 09, but that didn't work).

There is no slot on my mother board for a graphics card (I took it into the pc shop, and thats what they told me), but I'm thinking that because it's not high end graphics I'm after, perhaps a USB graphic card might work? or maybe somebody can point me in the right direction to get analyze to do all the work for me.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
