Try 'DirectX 9.0c' (Google it).

Download it, Install it, Restart your PC, THEN:

Start
->
Run
->
dxdiag
->
OK
->
Display
->
Make sure all the following are set to 'Enabled';
DirectDraw Acceleration
Direct3D Acceleration
AGP Texture Acceleration (may probably vary if you have a PCI pr PCI-E Slot, not sure)

Also, what Graphics Card are you using?

Well do the above, + your Graphics Card information should be on that Display tab in the dxdiag I said above.
