gracehannah13 Thanks for the dxdiag, but the error you originally posted has the important details: it points to an issue with .NET Framework 3.5. So please uninstall and reinstall it. Click Windows key-R, enter appwiz.cpl in the run box, click "Turn Windows features on or off," and .NET 3.5 will be near the top of the list.

If .NET 3.5 is already uninstalled, you can simply install it and restart.
If you get an error when trying to uninstall or reinstall it, please post a screenshot.
