I can not seem to run halo PC, i get a window that pops up saying

A problem occured initializing direct3d. Hardware acceleration maybe disabled, please run DXIAG.

I have tried many things even checking the hardware acceleration and nothing works.

Has anyone else encountered this, if so please tell me how you fixed it
