x1250 radeon

so i bought a new laptop and it came with the onboard x1250 radeon anyway so i go to do the canyourunit thing and it says i can play alot of games but newer games say they require pixel/vertex shader model 3 and i only have 2 so i was wondering what are the needs for the shaders and is there a way to play with only 2 instead of 3?

 

i don't think so, if the game says pixel shaders 3, it's what it says it is, and will probably tell you if you try to install it.. for instance, Call of Duty World at War is one of them, and on video cards that don't have shaders 3, it doesn't work on it...
