Old game won't run on my new windows 11 laptop because of directx error

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

I apologize for the confusion. Here are some steps to address the DirectX issue that's preventing you from playing the Batman Arkham Trilogy on your Windows 11 laptop:

1. Install DirectX End-User Runtimes: Some games may not be compatible with the latest version of DirectX installed on your system. To resolve this issue, you can download and install DirectX End-User Runtimes (Download DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer from Official Microsoft Download Center). This package contains all versions of DirectX libraries, allowing you to install the specific version the game requires.
   
2. Use DirectX Compatibility Mode: Some games support a DirectX compatibility mode. Look for this option in the game's settings menu and enable it.
   
3. Run the Game as Administrator: Some games need to be run with administrator privileges to function correctly. Right-click the game's executable file and select 'Run as administrator'.
   
4. Reinstall the Game: If the game was installed before you updated DirectX, it may not recognize the new libraries. Uninstall and reinstall the game.
   

Please try these steps and let me know if you need further assistance.

 

Can't run a DirectX 11 Game on DirectX 12

Hi, I tried to play a game called Lego Marvel Superheros 2, but when I ran the game it said "Fatal Error, Your machine is unable to run the game. It requires a graphics card which supports DirectX 11"
I checked what DirectX version I had, and it said I had DirectX 11, How do I fix this? (Or how do I downgrade to DirectX 11)

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

I see that you've encountered an internal system error while trying to install DirectX. This issue could be due to a variety of reasons, including problems with your system's configuration or issues with the DirectX installer itself. Here's what you can try to resolve this:

1. Check the DirectX Logs: As the error message suggests, check the DXError.log and DirectX.log files in your Windows folder. These logs might provide more detailed information about what's causing the issue.
   
2. Run the DirectX Installer as an Administrator: Right-click the DirectX installer and select 'Run as Administrator'. This will give the installer the necessary permissions to make changes to your system.
   
3. Use Windows System File Checker: This tool checks for and repairs corrupted system files. You can run it by opening Command Prompt as an administrator and typing sfc /scannow
   
4. Clean Boot Your System: This involves starting up your system with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This can help you identify if any third-party applications are causing the issue. You can find instructions on how to perform a clean boot in Windows 11 on the Microsoft website.
   
   Disclaimer: A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem. These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by-step so that it will help you get you back on track.
   
5. Perform an in-place upgrade of Windows 11 to fix your system.
   
   Disclaimer: Let’s try performing an in-place install or in-place upgrade which will refresh your Windows files and operating system without removing files or applications. That being said, we always recommend that if you have important data, you should back it up before making large system changes. If you want to back up your data first, please do so. Once you are done backing up, you can follow the steps in the following guides:
