I Installed company of heroes on my laptop and when i run the game it does start and i get an error window telling me that
"Failed to find a supported hardware rendering device. Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for Company of Heroes. Verify that DirectX is properly installed and that you have the latest drivers for your system."

now I know i have more than the minimum requirements on my laptop
and I have the latest version of Directx and i have ensured that it works
I've tried lowering down the video sittings
and even tried installing the game in different locations still the same error message

at last i tried to disable the video card from the device manager and it worked! but after one hour the was in a state of overheat and it shutdown.
PLEASE help me

Re: Company Of Heroes - installing error

Step 8:
8. If, after running through each of the above steps, you are still having the problem, then post your issue in the appropriate section, along with your full system specs (see the link below for info on posting system specs) and a list of the games which have the problem, and indicate that you have run through these steps. Someone will take a look at your thread as soon as possible.
Which graphics driver version number are you using, and when did you update to the latest version?

If you're using a laptop, you won't have a plug-in graphics card, you'll be using onboard graphics (a chip on the motherboard). What's the full name of the entry that you disabled in Device Manager?

Hello I am having the exact same error, "Failed to find a supported hardware rendering device. Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for Company of Heroes. Verify that DirectX is properly installed and that you have the latest drivers for your system."

Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
