If it's a laptop, you can't do much besides buying a new laptop. For a desktop you can replace just the graphics card. You can find compatible systems on this page:

The Ideapad 500 (depends on model) typically has an AMD R7 M360 graphics chip. According to notebookcheck.net, that's a low end 2015 product that is around the performance of a Geforce 920M. Benchmarks show that it has really bad game performance, for example in Dishonored 2 with low settings at 1280x720 it only gets 10.7fps.

'Skip setup" if you have DK2. Setup not detecting HDMI is common for DK2, as it's not fully supported. Once the instilation is complete the headset will work perfectly.
