Ok, so I just bought Halo PC and it worked fine on my friend's computer. When I tried installing the game on my computer everything went well until I started up the game and I got a message saying "A problem occured initializing Direct3D. Hardware acceleration maybe disabled, please run DXDIAG." I ran DXDIAG and I can't figure out how to enable the hardware acceleration. I can't play the game at all unless I figure out how to fix this problem (which I don't) so if someone knows how to fix this problem then I would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks : )

Click on the display tab. If it says you don't support it, get a new card.

I wonder if the Wolf thinks the Moon listens when he howls at it.

i suggest the nvidea geforce 4 mx4000 you can get medium quality graphics, and they sell for like 25 bux on newegg.com.Its an option for people who are casual gamers.
