Accroding to this one, http://steamcommunity.com/app/271590/discussions/0/611703709830024441/#p2

we have to get in registry editor and browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>MICROSOFT>DIRECT3D>DRIVERS and change SoftwareOnly to 0. Direct3D Accelleration was enabled and BAM in game

Click windows + R >> type "regedit" >> find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>MICROSOFT>DIRECT3D>DRIVERS >> change SoftwareOnly to 0

I've just upgraded to Windows 10, copied the GTA5 folder from SteamApps from other PC to this one, installed and verified data and I get this error. I've tried looking for the Regedit folder specified but I cant find the "Direct3D" folder, please help :)

Im just now receiving this problem and none of these methods are working for me. I've tried HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>MICROSOFT>DIRECT3D>DRIVERS and change SoftwareOnly to 0. Direct3D Accelleration was enabled and BAM in game
and DIRECT3D isn't there, and tried restarting pc and still isn't there. I've tried a system restore from before my recent driver update from today. Didn't work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled directx still didn't work. please help
