This game requires a DirectX9.0c capable graphic card.
Hi. I downloaded the game run it and it gave me that error. Whatever I did, I couldn't fix it. Error is:
This game requires a DirectX9.0c capable graphic card. Your card or driver does not support DirectX9.0c 3D Acceleration.
I have GTX 1050 Ti and my driver is up to date. I didn't have any problem since I formated my pc. Also solutions on the internet didn't fix the problem. How can I fix this?

Try verifying the game and if that doesn't help navigate to the Tomb Raider directory, find the redists folder and re-run the DX installer that is in there.

I already did them but that didn't fix it.

I already tried that too but I'm not sure if I could do it so I will look at it again.

Go to manage audio devices -> Double click on speakers -> Advanced options -> Change audio format to 24bit , 48000Hz ( studio quality). Try launching the game now.

If this does not work you might want to try reinstalling dx9 on your system. https://filehippo.com/download_directx/
Both of them didn't work.

boot into bios, disable motherboard graphics, reboot. game/steam can only recognize nvidia card. bios menu item under "Integrated Peripherals" or "On-Board Devices

havent tried it but this might work running in windows:
START > Control Panel > System > Select the "Hardware" tab > Device Manager > Display Adapters. Right click on the intel integrated graphics accelerator) and select DISABLE.
