VIrtua Tennis in slow motion

I've installed Sega's Virtua Tennis 3 on my laptop and all works well, except that the game play is very slow, not jerky or poor in quality, just that everything moves in smooth slow motion. I tried changing the game video settings, but nothing. I've updated to directx 9c, and checked the graphics drivers, but no change in the game speed. I have 2 gigs ram, but an intergrated graphics card.
I suspect the problem is as follows:
On the driver it shows that only 8MB is dedicated to graphics. (max available over 300MB) But it is only set to use 8MB. I cannot find anywhere in the BIOS where this can be changed.

Did you look at the system requirements for the game?
From a review of the Dell Latitude D630:
"I’ll be blunt, this machine was not built for gaming. Intel upgraded this generation’s integrated graphics but it is still no match for a dedicated card. Essentially, the X3100 can run old games but don’t expect F.E.A.R. or an equally graphically intensive game to be playable."
