I have read the multitude of post on this topic so I will try and simplify my problem:
A. My specs: Windows Vista, Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
B.I have updated all my drivers for both DirectX 9.0c and my graphics chip set.
C. The game worked before! I haven't played in awhile decided to play today and keep getting the error message that it can't find a Direct X9.0c compatible graphics adapter.
D. I ran dxdiag and everything came up clean.
E. I haven't installed any new hardware that would be causing this problem.
F. Last, I have un-installed and re-installed, same error. Oh, and restarted my computer.
Any help would be GREAT! I am an IT student so technical terms won't scare me, just please help! THANK YOU!
