DirectX Features:

DirectDraw Acceleration: Enabled
Direct3D Acceleration: Not Available
AGP Texture Acceleration: Not Available

Notes: No problems found.
To test DirectDraw functionality, click the "Test DirectDraw" button above.
Direct3D functionality not available. You should verify that the driver is
a final version from the hardware manufacturer.

I am getting this error when I try to run my game (Deadliest Catch...Alaskan
Storm):
~DirectX failed to initialize. Hit OK to terminate.

Here are the game requirements:

PC MINIMUM
Windows(R) 2000/XP/Vista
DirectX 9.0c (included on disc)
Pentium 4 2.0GHz or AMD equivalent
512 MB RAM (XP) or 2GB (Vista)
3.0 GB free hard drive space
DVD-ROM
Pixel Shader 2.0 or above compatible video card with at least 128 MB of
Video RAM
DirectX(R) 9.0c compatible sound card
Keyboard, Mouse

Please advise why my Direct3D Acceleration is showing not available and what
I can do to get it running.

Thanks,
Rene Mankopf
