Lacking enough hardware required for Direct3D
"Lacking enough hardware required for Direct3D, program will now exit" is the message I get when opening this PC game. Does anyone know what do I need to adjust from the NVIDIA control panel?
Thanks!

It's a shrek the third game. My PC has Windows 7 (32 bit) 4 GB of RAM installed, AMD Phenom(tm) II X2 560 Processor 3.30 GHz

By the way, the game is only supported for XP, so I downloaded the XP mode (on which I can use any program designed for XP) But the only problem right now is the Direct3D thing

Are you talking about running Windows XP Virtual? That may not have direct access to your video card; it is likely not possible to play a Directx 11 game while you are using a virtual machine; time for a newer game.
