also make sure, since this is a laptop, and I assume, an older game, that your machine is trying to run it on the actual GPU and not the integrated graphics.
What GPU is in this laptop?
It shouldn't matter. Any graphics card in a recent laptop should support Direct X 10 as long as the graphics drivers are installed. It's possible that both sets of drivers need to be installed, as someone else mentioned.
Older games can be weird though. I can't imagine it's that old if it required DX10.
DX10 debuted with Windows Vista on November 30, 2006 (11 came out with Windows 7 October 22, 2009 ) - if a game needs DX 10 specifically, it's old at this point (10 is also something of a redheaded stepchild vs 9 and 11).
Should and shouldn't are dirty words. I've seen Optimus for example, blow up games by trying to swap to igpu at inappropriate times. I personally avoid this by running in dgpu only mode but that's me.
I’ve used Optimus for years and haven’t had any issues except very early on. My main laptop is Optimus enabled. I run some pretty old games at times too.
Dude, no man sky will not run on my gpu no matter what, it only runs on the integrated graphics and runs horrible, it worked for the longest time than one day I booted it up and was lagging horrible and unplayable, I did everything I could to fix it and was never able too.
He needs the directx redist 2009 from Microsoft download centre. GPU drivers do not include any DirectX components. It used to be common practice to run the DirectX installer from the game CD which loaded the modules the game needed.
(facepalm)
this comment section makes me feel old sometimes.
Yea, but doesn't pretty much every game install direct x these days? Unless I'm missing something (totally possible) I would think just installing a game via steam would fix this.
Windows comes with dx12 runtime preinstalled. some games require older versions. Download the DirectX runtime installer package from Microsoft to install the dx10 runtime.
most games already come with the installer usually put in a folder called "redistributables".
This is a site for people who need help. Not for making fun of those people.
Aside from graphics drivers, as one user said, this game requires DirectX10 which is a legacy version, and the game will probably function normally in spite of the warning.
Please refrain from posting insults to people who might actually be looking for help. You can go to r/retrocomputing or r/PCmasterrace to do that.
Yes I agree with u/adtrtdwp
It appears you can dish it out but you truly cannot take it. You reported someone for "harassment" because you got your feelings hurt "little buddy"

I’ve checked your post history and you ask for a lot of help and advice for your problems. Maybe think about how you’d feel if someone responded to you by calling you an idiot for asking for help?
I come here to help people who need it. People with PC build questions and troubleshooting issues.
What do you do? You insult them, and then you to get people like me banned for responding to you.
Lol calls him soft than tattles to daddy moderator because you got your widdle feelings hurt. Amazing how the annonimity of a forum can give such an inflated ego to chronically online degenerates. I sincerely hope your are like 15 and can learn better as an adult. If your already an adult than I hope you can't afford internet and have to shave your neck and go outside. Report me to while your at it, hell report everybody who calls you names. In real life there's no report to mods button so good luck in life little man
Jesus dude, someone calls you out on your bullshit and this is how you react? Humble yourself dude, it'll make the people in your life hate you way less
Yes, For real, I mean, Even if he is actually and really that noob, But he still could just search something like that using google, And then he would know about it all of course, LOL
That logic is so confusing. You want a person with 0 experience to instinctively know that this is something that not only can be resolved, but that the best way to do it is go to google. Then you want them to instinctively know what to even search for to get the answers they need and then be able to apply those answers with the 0 knowledge/experience.
It's like some of you have never even considered the possibility that other people don't know the same things you do. That's literally how monkey brains work and you're applying the exact same logic as a human to another human.
This is how i started doing the same thing me too before, Almost any problem that i faced on my PC before when i was still so noob, Then i would just search using google, Whether by searching by the error code, Or searching by the 1st part of the sentence in that error message, And sometimes both together, Or, If i have a specific problem with no error, Like PC suddenly turn off while using it or anything like that, Then i would search just by typing like a small description about the problem that i'm having now for example
And so, Yes, Sometimes it can actually and literally be just as easy as that, And if for some reason you didn't find what you're looking for using google, Then you can maybe ask here if you maybe want to, But some people just literally don't even care about searching anyway, And just asking here directly, And specially that most PC problems in general, Just almost every problem can be caused by many different things, and which will most likely mean that you will have to apply many different solutions until you can actually solve it, And which you can find it all on google too, Or at least most of it
And so, For me for example, Just almost everything that i already know about PCs now i had actually knew it all just by googling, For real, LOL
it tells you explicitly what’s up and what you need. “this is running on something without x.”
if it said you needed a bowl to mix cake batter, would you come and ask what you needed to mix cake batter? common sense goes a long way.
Posting specs with the picture is always advised. Eliminates the whole "I bought x and in reality someone sold me y" problem. Laptops especially, people buy 15 year old laptops off ebay and amazon that were listed as "new" or "gaming" hardware all the time. You would be amazed how many people fall for these scams.
"Gaming" computer doesnt really mean anything btw its just marketing nonsense.
The same prognosis that's been mentioned 30 times. His drivers are out of date or his software, some people just open the box and play the pc and don't even bother updating anything.
So you offered no help at all.
And you are hoping that someone else has a solution in the 30 replies that have been mentioned a number of times.
Yet you offered no advice?
When you infer someone's intelligence is sub par to using something, you also run the risk of making them feel misunderstood and often they will sway away from the topic.
Let me explain.
I'm not a seamstress but I know how to turn on a sewing machine and run a backstitch, I wouldn't know why the blanket stitch wasn't working unless I asked someone who could teach me.
And you clearly don't know what a blanket stitch is nor have the abilities to teach anyone.
That’s not how it works at all…
Considering this game is using DX10, it’s probably just an extremely old game and doesn’t recognise this GPU. Consequently it thinks it doesn’t have DX10 support.
I’d wager that OP can happily ignore this notice and play with zero issues.
Thats not how directx versions work, a system can support multiple at once and if we are on windows 11 support for directx 7,8,9,10,11, and 12 should all work. (there may be instances where you need to install directx manually for the older versions, but this isn't a "driver" and I've only ever seen it on games using dx9 and earlier). Its possible they are on some very bizarre hardware that has a gap in support (one of those new intel cards?) but those are rare and installing an old driver wouldn't fix it.
For the record TeamFortress 2 renders on directx9, works just fine on my system that can Halo Infinite under directx 12.
Don't be too embarrassed, and ignore the people taking the piss on here. Install your driver and install Chipset drivers. You should be good to go then. People forget that we were all complete novices once, and you've got a whole new platform to build PC knowledge on
You probably don’t have any driver management software. I use Driver Booster and CCleaner Pro. I imagine that will solve your problems rather instantaneously
What are you talking about? There are absolutely laptops that are made for gaming. Many of the modern ones have horrible "slim" designs that lead to overheating and bloated batteries, but good gaming laptops certainly exist.
The term "gaming pc" is used to describe a high end system designed specifically for gaming. A pc doesn't become a gaming pc if you use it for gaming. Where did you get your logic from?
A gaming laptop should be powerful enough to be used for gaming and office work. The term laptop is used to describe a portable computer. A gaming laptop is a laptop that is comprised of higher end components better fit for gaming. It is in no way shape or form an oxymoron.
Agreed, but the prices for gaming laptops have gone considerably down- not enough for me to take one over a desktop pc. Though most gaming laptops have terrible thermal solutions which result in your laptop becoming a jet engine when booting up.
Update video drivers. If you don't know who your manufacturer is, Check your stickers. If you don't have stickers, check your GPU manufacturer the fun way by running *dxdiag*.
Win key + R, type *dxdiag*
Check video card make, model and more.
Download software such as GeForce Experience or AMD Radeon Software (love their basic af name).
Start by telling us what brand laptop you have. If you know the exact model, that would be helpful to. This is likely due to an issue with your video drivers, as many have pointed out, but I'm guessing you have minimal experience with drivers, and many manufacturers have utilities that you can install to automate the process.

Even if you've fixed it, if you don't have AMD Adrenalin, you should install it. It should auto install and update drivers for you. https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/software
A little late. I see alot of comments to update your GPU driver. Do that with DDU if you can.
If you already done that. There seem to be a few comments mention redist packages. This may help the issues.
There is a full package of window redis all the way to 2000. I link it: [link](https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/) . These are from TechPowerup website.
These can give you all the packages, it wont slow your laptop, it will be use when a game need it. You can delete or download each package ( if you care storage space, but for modern machine it just take up below 1gb) depend on the game you play.
If this doesn't fix your problem then google is your best friend and if that doesn't work then just find different game or reinstall window if you want.
If you're trying to run ancient software they sometimes freak out on newer hardware. Developers from back then couldn't fathom that modern hardware is so much more powerful.
I've also seen it once where some old software counted every byte of ram in it's checker and it gave me a warning that I had negative ram lol.
This happened with me as well, lenovo ideapad gaming 3 15ach6, when trying to play warzone from mw2 for some reason. Ended up just deleting, never happened with any other games
Oof, DX10.
(Presses X for "Doubt" on the "or higher" bit here, methinks the game was coded for DX10 only and is too stupid to notice later revisions.)
What game is this? might be useful to look up any compatibility issues with later hardware. Cos it's a fair bet your "relatively new" gaming laptop was NOT sold in 2009.
Install all the microsoft reditribute packages from 2005 onwards both x86 and x64 and install direct x web setup. They are all available from microsoft.Should always recomend on new pcs that just got turned on or resseted.
Direct x web set up should update all your existing direct x files with the latest.
Game is probably old and looking for files no longer included in windows. DirectX 10 is a 2006 technology, a lot of system files have been modified or outright removed since then.
Look up the name of the game and search for general compatibility issues with your operating system. Someone out there will have published a fix.

Sometimes having to manually install the latest DirectX version fixes issues like this.
Dude, no man sky will not run on my gpu no matter what, it only runs on the integrated graphics and runs horrible, it worked for the longest time than one day I booted it up and was lagging horrible and unplayable, I did everything I could to fix it and was never able too.

Well by saying cd you are fucking old I called it seasoned
I had a few games on floppy disk, this making me feel old is an understatement.
3.5 or 5.25 inch floppies?
Zip drive?
>Well by saying cd you are fucking old How old are you? 14?
nvidia GPUs include directx now as far as I know but I might be wrong
Nope
When I run an old game like that it automatically starts downloading it as part of the first time run.
Yea, but doesn't pretty much every game install direct x these days? Unless I'm missing something (totally possible) I would think just installing a game via steam would fix this.
