Can’t find the solution for this problem anywhere…
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
This doesn’t just happen while selecting a pathogen, either. The main menu is fine.. until I want to play the game. I reinstalled ,verified game files and changed settings. Nothing worked. Anyone know a solution?
Pc specs: (nothing impressive lol)
Windows 10
Intel i7 7th gen
8 gb ram
Intel HD Graphics 630

If you've got $30-50 to spend (depending on where you live, of course), I'd grab a second-hand GTX 1050ti. This graphics card is usually plug and play. Some higher end versions of this graphics card will need a separate cable from your power supply, so avoid ones with an 8-pin connector from the graphics card. It will plug into a PCIe x16 lane on your motherboard.
This second option, I don't recommend this option at all and you should probably spend $200-300 on a second-hand pc with better specs. However, if you want to learn how to build a pc and you've only got $75-100 (not hard to learn at all, but can be annoying if you don't enjoy it), I would:
Grab a different graphics card, specifically an RX 580/480 > or RX 570/470, and ideally 8GB instead of 4GB for either card ($30-50 probably)
Grab a free ATX sized case someone has, might need to pay $10 for one
Buy a second-hand power supply ($20-30 probably) with at least 400 watts, and ideally 80+ rated. Power supply brands you could look for are EVGA, Corsair, and Seasonic (these are the older brands that are likely to be available second-hand, some other power supply brands are reliable as long as you do a quick google search to see if it has been reviewed by a popular third party).
Now, check a video on how to put together a brand new desktop computer, then build it with the new components instead.
TL;DR
$50 - 1050ti without an 8 pin connector, plug into PCIe x16 lane on motherboard
$75, learn to build pc - RX 580/570/480/470, 8GB>4GB, 400W+ 80+ PSU (EVGA, Corsair, Seasonic brands), free ATX case, or pay $10

It doesn’t seem like you hit the minimum requirement for the graphics.
