Answer 3

It means that the graphic card can not meet the game's requirement...

 

Google the "Paradox Interactive+ magicka crash common problems"

Answer 4

Try updating your directX runtime version to the latest version. You can find that here. You can also try updating your graphics drivers to the latest version. If those don't work, it's likely that your graphics card can't run magicka.
