Doing a quick google search on your PC model number led me to this page: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/11647_na/11647_na.html

The important bit is this:

Intel 865G chipset with Integrated Intel Extreme Graphics 2

Which, according to a few sources I found, seems to not support shaders.

You need a new graphics card.
