I want to play a game on my PC but it says I have "outdated drivers or video cards that do not meet the game's requirements." I did a DirectX Diagnostic and it says I have NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 420 card. What should I do now?

In general, if a game tells you that it won't run on your card, it means you need a newer video card.
As you didn't tell us which game this would be, I can only surmise that it's one of those that won't run on the 4MX's. which seems to be quite a few of them nowadays.

Sorry to tell you this, you can try updating the drivers (link below), but I don't think that will do you any good, for playing your game.
The GeForce 4's went out of production quite a few years ago, they were a budget card that only had 64mb of memory, a bottom end card from nvidia now starts with four times that amount of memory and a few generations of processor later.
Replacement graphics cards shouldn't cost you too much, so it may well be time for an upgrade.

Go to the NVIDIA website and download the most recent driver.
just double-click and it should install.
