Start > run and enter dxdiag
The directx diagnosic thing will start and it tells you the version installed on your machine.

or goto http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and it will be one of the updates if you don't have it installed

you ain't the cops

go thru the dxdiag video/d3d tests and make sure they all pass. if they do then maybe your drivers are shot and need reinstalling.

... omg ... ok lets go. what brand is your pc? how old is it? how much ram you got? how fast is your cpu? they have to meet the system requirement or else the program wont work ^^.make sure you got the system requirement then run the program. if its still does not work, well that means that theres not much left to do . good luck
