Really dude? You don't know how to run Windows Update?

You should probably take a Windows class before attempting to use it.

There is a windows update that has been messing up DX10 and DX11 games on some people's machines, that's why I'm asking.

still not even though i reinstall it, how do u check ur video card or graphic card (im new to pc gaming so i never really worried bout this)

1) Open the start menu.
2) In the search field type, "dxdiag" (without the quotes) - the DirectX box will pop up.
3) Click on the "display" tab
4) type down what you see in the "Device" section, and also the date of your driver (in the section to the right of the Device section).

While you're at it, see what it says in "Notes", at the bottom of the box.

PART 2: This is to get your graphics card to render the game (Steps 4-7: http://i.imgur.com/VAkZW.png)

1. Download Nvidia Inspector from: http://tinylink.net/nvidiainspector
2. Open Nvidia Inspector
3. Click the button to the right of DRIVER VERSION.
4. From the PROFILE menu, select JUST CAUSE 2.
5. Scroll down the window until you find: Shim Rendering Mode Options per application for Optimus.
6. Click the text to the right, scroll to the top of the dropdown, and select SHIM_RENDERING_OPTIONS_DEFAULT_RENDERING_MODE
7. Click APPLY CHANGES in the top right-hand corner.
8. Run your game

This solution has worked for me, and various other people. Hopefully this is the fix you're looking for.

Thanks nickshertzer for your fix. I upgraded my computer from a 512mb ATI graphics chip to a 2GB nvidia spec and Just Cause 2 STOPPED working. I don't know if it was a driver or Windows 8 issue but your solution fixed it. Thanks again, it is a great game.
