Unhappy direct 3d doesnt work

hello,
im fairly new to this so I'll just try to tell u guys what my problem is. i downloaded wow the other day and tried to play it when a dialog box popped up and said that direct 3D couldn't start and it told me to update my video drivers and direct x. i have them updated and it still wont work. when i do the diagnostics and test the direct 3d, it always stops on step 8 and says it failed at creating a 3D device. i had wow once and played it on this computer and it worked perfectly. its only been a month and i haven't done anything to it. any ideas on how to fix it? i have been trying for 2 days now and i am getting frustrated.

It would appear the Nforce chipset driver is missing. This will affect the Video controller.

For gamers, It's allways worth downloading the current DirectX plus fixes update: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Validation is required.

Or the full download ( March 2008). http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
