I am running windows 7 x86 home premium with a Nvidia 7950GT. Even though my video card isnt great, I'm fairly certain I can run this game as I can run more graphically demanding games.

Anyhow, I'd like to play this thing soon so any feedback would be helpful.

Thanks.

Sorry, but XNA strictly requries a graphics card supporting Shader Model 2.0. If you don't have a graphics card you will be unable to run this game.

every computer has a graphics card, laptops have built in ones, desktops have ones you can swap out for other ones, unless you mean yours broke and didnt get replaced yet D:
if correct shader model 2.0 began around vista os i think, i say this as my XP doesnt have shader 2.0.

could it also be that a specific Xna framework installation isnt installed?
since base components like those are required for a game to run.

checkout the microsoft website for the XNA framework installs.

hopefully this info helps some.

whats your computers os? pass up what info you have on your computer, as it would help figure out easier what your running on.

also unsure if i mentioned this before, direct x relist holds 9.0 and below updates, which are sometimes required, there is also the newer updates they all compile together when installed.

drivebooster -iobit.com , can make sure your drivers are updated

make sure all windows updates are finished.
as this could be various reasons why wont run, usually an program requirement.

Thanks for providing this information. You have a better grasp on this than I do.

Please let me know if there are still any issues.

Hello, I just wanted to say this issue has been stabbing me in the back for years, and for the first time ever I got a computer to run my own game when it initially gave that error message. Previously I thought whenever I saw that error it was just time to give up. So thank you!
