Failed to Initialize display adapter

Everytime i attempt to start the game a get the message (Failed to initialize adapter.Please ensure your video card is compatible and the drivers for it installed.usually this is a result of missing vendor specific drivers.) I have tried so many times to update my AMD since thta was an earlier problem and still gives me the same message, is there anything i should do or can do to solve this. please help asap i really wanted to play the game.
