What kind of help do you expect - upgrade your hardware accordingly.

| Video Card
| Minimum: 128 MB NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT or greater (GeForce 6800XT,
| 6800LE, 7100GS, 7200GS, 7200LE, 7300GS, 7300GT not supported);
| ATI Radeon X1300 Pro or greater. Laptop versions of these chipsets
| may work but are not supported.

BTW: Not a Windows issue.

So what could you not understand about the error message? Check the
specs for your video card. Check what are the minimal video
requirements for the game. The game is obviously newer and demands
better hardware. Until you get the minimum hardware required by the
game, it'll sit on the shelf collecting dust or just waste disk space.

The EA site is very crappy for getting information on their products,
and right now it is extremely slow. I did find system requirements
listed at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medal_of_Honor:_Airborne. So,
do you have a video card that supports Shader version 3?

My old ATI Radeon X850 AGP only supports Shader 2.0b, so I can't play
any games that demand support for Shader v3, like BioShock. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._Pixel_Shaders
for a list of some games and which pixel shader version is required.
Yours is too new to show up in this list but the system requirements
for the game say that Shader v3 is required. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_shader for a list of pixel shader
versions supported by various video chipsets. I built a new computer
for my aunt that has an ATI HD2900 video card and it supports Shader
v4 - but then she doesn't play those high-end games. For me, games
are not worth the cost to swap out my old video card and spend gobs on
minimal hardware acceleration or special features. There are still
games that my video card will play, plus I like paying lower prices
for the older games.

Not here. You need to get a different video card, (the physical bit of
hardware), that the game supports.

Under the readme file for the game there will be a minimum make/model of
video card you can use.

Does your video card support what the game says it needs?

This means that your video card is to low tech or the video card wont run
with that game for it to work with the game I am sorry but if you look on the
back of the box for you game it should say the requirements and a good video
card if you have any questions you should ask a person in your nearest
computer shop.
