The system is using the generic video driver..... Please Help!

Hello.. Please help!

After hearing that Diablo 3 was coming out i felt like playing Diablo 2.. so i installed the disks and an error message keeps coming up "Problem initializing Direct draw" so i Check 'DxDiag' and it says: The system is using the generic video driver. Please install video driver provided by the hardware manufacturer. Direct3D functionality not available.

could someone please help.. i have no clue about the technical side of computers lol..

I don't know what system spec you would like so i'll just paste what it says on DirectX Diagnosis.
