Your video card does not meet the minimum requirement to run Demigod:

 

  • 128 MB 3D Video Card (ATI Radeon X1600 / Nvidia GeForce 6800 or better)

But if I were you, I would get something better than that ;). The 9400 will make you able to run the game, but it won't give you that great of a performance. What is your budget for a new GPU?

It was about $75

Oh :(. For that amount of money I would have suggested a Radeon HD 4670 (which is around 60€ here).
