Error When Trying to Start: "This game requires Direct3D 9.0c on Windows Vista and above."

[Final]

There's an error when trying to start: "This game requires Direct3D 9.0c on Windows Vista and above." I have DirectX 11 on Windows 7 64 bit. I have a GeForce GTS 250 with updated drivers. Not sure what the problem is but I can play all other steam games I have just fine but this one is giving me the error. I had stem validate the files and it says there 100% correct.

If anyone else is getting this same error go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\MortalKombat_KompleteEdition\DiscContentPC

right click MKKE.exe go to compatibility and click "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)". Then hit ok and right click the exe again and click run as administrator.

So, what you are saying is you DON'T have DirectX 9? That's the error message, so I would go with installing that first and see if everything is now ok. (Usually Steam does this stuff automatically on first run, try a manual reinstall of it to be sure. No one should be required to run this in compatibility mode, its fine under Win 7 x-64)

DirectX 11 =/= DirectX 9 They are completely separate things. I can see you have many games on your profile, so one of them surely has installed DirectX 9 via Steam before. Perhaps the GTS 250 is the problem? Is that worse than the minimum required GTS 8800? I am not sure how the numbers differ with nvidias older cards, but my guess is that maybe your GTS 250 is not actually a DirectX 10/11 capable card, and compatibility mode is forcing the game to use DirectX 9 instead of a newer version which is causing a crash. The game does state it does NOT support DirectX 9 on the store page, however users are reporting the game actually does run in DirectX 9 anyway /boggle.

think Nvidia 250 gts most support directX 8 infact and a little directX 9

(remember video card numbers)
it goes like this! we start with yours 250-260-270-280-290-300-310
the newest is the Nvidia 970 gtx (my friend have Nvidia 890 gtx i have the 880 gtx card)
