  1. DirectX 12 Error


    I'm trying to run 'Sengoku Dynasty' on my laptop and I keep getting this error : "DirectX 12 is not supported on your system. Try running without the -dx12 or -d3d12 command line argument." I have tried a bunch of things I've seen online. Verified the game files, updated my laptop + drivers and nothing is working, any tips? I've run plenty of games on this laptop before so I'm not sure why this one isn't working.

    :)

  3. DirectX 12 Ultimate

    DirectX 12 Ultimate features will work only if you have a GPU which supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. Please check your GPU manufacturer(Intel, AMD, Nvidia) website for the list of supported GPUs and the driver updates to enable the features.

    DirectX 12 Error

    Can't buy DirectX 11 required Windows 10 game, have DirectX 12 installed

    Hi,

    In order to help you effectively, kindly provide us additional information.

    • What is the exact error message you're getting? Could you provide us the screenshot?
    • How did you install the DirectX 12? Was it manually, or through Windows Update?

    If you install DirectX 12 through Windows Update, then we would suggest that you perform a System Restore to take your computer back to an earlier point in time. It will not affect your personal files, but will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed
    after the restore point was made.

    After the restore, you may then install DirectX 11 through Windows Update. As there is no stand-alone update package for it.

    Let us know how it goes.
