Error message when trying to launch Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare

Question

Hi, I've purchased and installed 'Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare' but when I try to launch the game, I get the following error messages:

"Dectected AMD Radeon driver version UNKNOWN. The recommended driver version is 13.12 or later. Please update your drivers at http://www.amd.com/ before playing the game. Do you want to try and run the game anyway? There may be stability, performance or visual corruption issues."

When I click OK, another message pops up:

"Your computer does not meet the minimum requirements for playing this game. Radeon X1600/X1650 Series GPU does not support DirectX 10.0 which is required."

I have the latest video drivers installed (according to AMD) and DirectX 11 installed. How do i fix this error and run the game?

Thanks.

Answer

If that is the card you have, it is eight years old, can only display Dx9, and is very VERY slow beyond that failure.&nbsp; Why have you held onto that antique so long?&nbsp;

In my opinion, any computer with that ANCIENT &amp; poor of a graphics system is LONG overdue for the recycle drop off!&nbsp;

Your video doesn't come CLOSE to what an HD 5750 can do.&nbsp; Your CPU is probably equally antiquated. &nbsp;
