So I've installed SWBF EA and it does not work. When I attempt to run the game it says DirectX 11 is required but not supported on my computer. I am not sure if that is fixable, if it is that would be great!

You will absolutely need a computer with a modern CPU and a dedicated GPU that supports DX11 if you want to play it. No real way around it otherwise.

I do believe I am actually using DX11 right now and that it is currently updated. When I type dxdiag into Windows search, a thing comes up with DX information. Here's the screenshot for each tab in that thing:

So I have DX11 obviously, but I don't see why the game isn't working.

This graphics processor is not supported. Nor does it have enough memory. You need a dedicated graphics card, not that internal graphics chip.

Modelle mit diskreter Grafik:
•AMD Radeon HD 6470M mit 1 GB dediziertem DDR3-Grafikspeicher
•Geeignet für Microsoft DirectX 11 (Shader Model 5.0) und OpenGL 4.0
•AMD Eyefinity-Technologie unterstützt bis zu vier unabhängige Displays, wenn eine HP Advanced-Dockingstation verwendet wird

Modelle mit integrierter Grafik:
•Intel HD Graphics 3000
•Geeignet für Microsoft DirectX 10.1 (Shader Model 4.1) und OpenGL 3.0

Some HP EliteBook 8460p have a 2nd graphic card. Does your one have such a 2nd AMD Radeon HD 6470M?? But even if it has such a graphic card, 1GB DDR3 is not enough
