@betharies2 Your laptop is pretty far behind on software updates. Dell lists a number of updates, some of which are marked urgent, that you don't have. It's probably easiest to install the Dell Update Application at the top of the list and let it do its thing. But if you don't want to do that, please at the very least install these, in order, with restarts in between:
Once you've either done the manual installs or let the Dell application do it for you, restart one more time and try to play. If you still can't, please run a new dxdiag.
@puzzlezaddictI didn't even realize that I had missed computer updates. But I know I've had a habit of absent mindlessly clicking to postpone updates constantly when the option pops up while I'm doing other things.
Do you know where I go to do it's updates?
And how do I do the updates that you have in that list?
Also, my game did end up opening last night right after I left my last post here. I decided to give it one last try before bed and it opened.... but tonight it's right back to not opening again.
Update: I found where to search for updates. It says it's already up to date.... except for updating to the next version of Windows.
@betharies2 Sorry, I meant to link the Dell driver page for your laptop, but I guess I forgot to include that. It's here:

These are not Windows updates, or at least they're not all Windows updates; they're drivers and other software provided by Dell. You'll notice there's an update application offered as well, if you don't want to have to go through the list of drivers yourself. But I'm not sure whether the app will update BIOS for you, so you may need to do that on your own.
