Hi,
1) Which game are you trying to play?
2) What is the exact/complete error message you receive when you launch the game?
3) Which version of DirectX is on your computer?
You may refer the following article to check the version of DirectX installed on the computer.

Run ‘Windows Update’ to install latest DirectX available.

I am trying to play the game on my CPU called "Battlefield 3" and it is telling me i need a Direct X
10 or 10.1 depending on my system.... i have not tried to install direct X 10 yet. But if it works I will reply a good review.
DX 10 and DX10.1 are not different Direct X installations.
DX10.1 is an incremental update of Direct3D 10.0. It first came out with Vista sp1.
The list in my earlier post shows all the d3dx files available. Once a clean install of Win7 has
been updated via the Direct X Web Installer it will have all the available DX files.
It make no difference if the gpu is Nvidia or ATI/AMD.
The only relationship between gpu and Direct X has to do with older cards that only support
DX 9 ( XP era cards), which are followed by cards that support DX9 and DX 10 (Vista era cards), which are followed by more recent (Win7 era) cards that support DX 9, 10 and 11.
im trying to play Just Cause 2 and my Directx is 11 and the message is: Fatal directx error code 15 launch with /failsafe if problem persists
