Did you update your graphics drivers, get the latest (1.0X) update, turn on antialiasing , and make sure you don't have textures or bump mapping disabled?

Geforce 4 MX 440 is what I have. It has no Pixel Shaders, nor Vertex Shaders, so it won't run textures or much graphics of any sort. It also is a 64 MB Card, which is passable but not by any means good at all.

It's suprising it even works with the game. I'd recommend updating like I will as soon as you can, it'll be worth it.

I have a 7800GT but for a game like this the graphics are not what drew me in at all. StarCraft is still one of my favorite games and you can run that from almost any comp made in the last 7yrs. I dont know what this game would look like on a low end card but other than some textures i dont see much most other would be missing.
