    How do I fix this error?


    Whenever I try to run most games, whether it be from Steam, Origin, Uplay or the Windows store, if the game uses Direct3D I get this error:


    Failed to initialize Direct3D.
    Make sure you have at least DirectX 9.0c installed, have drivers for your
    graphics card and have not disabled 3D acceleration
    in display settings.
    InitializeEngineGraphics failed


    I have uninstalled my Nvidia drivers and reinstalled twice, I have DirectX 12 and Direct3D Acceleration is enabled as shown in dxdiag.


    This has been going on for around 4-5 weeks and I'm really starting to get frustrated.

    :)
