press ctrl-alt-del buttons at the same time.
select "task manager"
What is the number given at the bottom
"number of processes: **"

go to the processes tab, and list them here.

now, what are they?
one should be explorer.exe
svchost.exe should be there too, (perhaps several times)
taskmgr.exe
dllhost.exe i think should also be there

all of those are collectively your "background processes"

You probably don't have a video card powerful enough to run the game...after all, it is a laptop, with very little room for graphics.

My guess is you have crap onboard video (which is TYPICAL) and that is why you cannot play the game.
