you need direct 3D

First run directX diagnostig tool (start->run->"dxdiag") and check if it finds any errors in direct3d tests.

I have run the dxdiag, and there where no problems.
where can i find direct3d?

In dxdiag, go to the Display tab. Make sure the acceleration sliders are set to full, then run the 2 tests.

Sliders? I can't find any sliders in the display, or any other tab

Sorry, my mistake. I meant buttons, not sliders. Just make sure the Acceleration buttons are enabled, then run the tests.
