Minimum Requirements Issue

Just what are the minimum requirements for STO?
On my desktop, I have no issues, though my laptop is another thing... I used to be able to play on it, though now I get an error message saying that I need a graphics card that "Supports DirectX Hardware Feature Level 10 or higher"...
Any idea, what gives?

You Graphic Cards Support only Direct x 10 with Intel Beta Drivers !!!
Install Orginal Intel Beta Drivers for your Graphic Card !
its a 700.00 laptop, it has a m2 250gb hd, and 8 gb ram, but leaves an open bay for an extra hard drive and 1 open memory slot for easy ram upgrade. I added another 250gb SSD and 1 tb external drive and 16gb additional ram to mine.
Just in case any STO players were trying to decide on a new laptop.
The R5 Graphics are lacking, since recent updates. I struggled with STO with R6 graphics. R7 graphics and up were what was needed.
