Windows 10: Microsoft flight Sim. error

SO, I have a 2020 macbook pro. I got windows to download and run off of an external hard drive. I first had difficulties downloading and installing MFS through the microsoft store. So i downloaded steam and downloaded it off of that. But every time I try to run it I get a D3DRenderer_Z error code.

My Mac is completely up to date, all my drivers are updated on the mac side and windows hard drive. I have windows 10 downloaded and up to date. I just don't know what to do. I'm not a big tech person but I am great at following direction if someone could help!
