12 years agoGame does not recognize DirecX. Can't launch.
Hello.
I am having a rather strange problem with launching Mass Effect 2. When I tried to launch it for the first time, I got a pop up telling me that the game required the latest DirectX to launch.
The problem is, I'm running windows 8, which already has DirectX 11. I tried searching for updates in windows update, but it was up to date. I tried dowloading and installing the DirectX linked in the pop up, but since its for Windows 7 and bellow it would not launch.
Additional information:
I have played several games that required DirectX with no issues whatsoever before in this computer.
I bought this game on Steam.
I am running Windows 8.1.
My computer is an ASUS G750JX-MBS1-H.
Please help. I've been searching for a solution all weekend long.
