I need assistance in fixing this error. I've seen it before and I can't quite remember how I fixed it since it was years ago.

Please just give me proper steps. Assume I have reinstalled my video drivers and Java. Simple stuff never works for me. I have 3GB of Ram, that should be plenty. Googling it leads me to a maze of results that deal mostly with Windows 7/8 and different specs than mine.

Here is the error log;

Note; I can't remember how to check how much RAM is allocated, if you could give me the proper numbers and how to input them it may fix the problem. Like I said, it's been years since I've come across this issue.

my next question would be why does it keep telling me I can only play the demo? I bought the game and I was playing it on my boyfriend's computer, but when I try to login to it on my laptop, it keeps shooting me to being logged in not under my account saying I only have the demo.
