windows DirectX 11 problem?

ok, I bought an Acer Veriton 5500V from ebay. I've made a few modifications to it, but either way the machine was made years ago, and I lost the installation disk for windows XP (the computer did not have an operating system on it, but was made for XP) so, I used my windows 7 ultimate 32 bit installation disk. all good and fine, except, my knowledge of computers is with XP, and I haven't really had a look at windows 7. I thought there'd be no problems, since my computer was made for directX 9.0c or lower, and 11 had the previous versions on it. I was wrong. for some reason, direct3D acceleration is unavailable, so is directdraw acceleration, and AGP texture acceleration. my computer is only a workstation one, and the motherboard doesn't have a graphics card slot, only expansion slots. what might be the problem?

  • This computer was not designed to play games. The video chip doesn't support the features you listed. You'll have to find a old PCI (not PCI Express) video card.

    It seems this PC would be better used a file server or something. Cram it full of hard drives and connect it to a network. That's pretty much all it's good for now.

  • DX11? Is that even out? O_O besides, it truly is a few issues. i imagine that your DX11 is only too better for the game to run. i'm no longer declaring you need to downgrade, notwithstanding it would want to be the issue. i won't be able to run a great style of my previous videogames because the photographs are too solid on my laptop. It sounds strange notwithstanding that is actual. besides, do you go with the unique Halo to play CE? i theory you probably did. :/ Does the installer provide to position in DX9? If it does, enable it to position in DX9. because that is going to comprehend your DX11 and tell the archives that so it would want to turn on the archives it desires on your DX11. wish that enables you!
