Age of Empires III and the Sims 2 graphic problems
I am experiencing 2 different errors with these 2 game - The sims 2 and age of empires III. Both problems are due to some graphics problem, These problems started after my pc was formatted and have tried every solution I found on forums and help sites but still nothing.
the errors are
Age of Empires III -
Initialization failed
Direct3d initialization failed. Possible causes:
Old or corrupted graphics driver.
Direct3d improperly installed.
Hardware acceleration disabled.
Starting the application with the workstation locked.
Please check the log file for more information.
The Sims 2 -
Failed to enumerate any Directx 9 compatible graphics adapters in this system!
Please make sure you have a directx 9 compatible adapter and have installed manufacturer provided driver.
The application will now terminate...
Here are my system information if it might help (there is much more stuff but i didn't write it all down, ask if u will be needing more info)
