Minimum requirements not met

[GewdTwo]

I have played this game, on this laptop, before. I have had no problems. All of the sudden, the game is telling me the minimum requirements are not met, and will not launch. Any suggestions? How are you? Thanks,
:)

PS the first workaround in that link can be done in other way by going to steam library and:

1. Right click game, click properties.
2. Click Launch Options.
3. Type "-dontForceMinReqs" (without quotes).
4. Save options.

But if you used second fix then you don't need this first solution specially since it locks texture to low if you use first solution.

Second solution if you brave enough to try just don't use first solution with this:

Disable DirectDraw Emulation Mode
This fix is best applied by an experienced user. Incorrect registry edits can seriously disable your PC! Proceed at your own risk.

1. Open up regedit (type the name into the Start Menu's search bar and press ↵ Enter)
   
2. Export a backup of your registry, just in case.
   
3. Nagivate to the following location:
   
   • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\DirectDraw
4. You should see the key EmulationOnly set to 1. Double click the key and change its value to 0.
   
5. Close the registry editor, reboot your computer, and retry the game.
   
6. When you do not plan on playing the game for a while, edit the registry entry back to 1 as it may interfere with games using DirectDraw heavily, such as older 2D games.
