reported that the Direct3D tests show no rendered cubes; was right to point at drivers and DirectX. Common causes are missing/incorrect GPU drivers, disabled hardware acceleration, or failing hardware. Try the steps below in order so each change isolates the problem.

Run the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (type dxdiag from Run). On the Display tab note the adapter name, driver version/date and whether Direct3D/DirectDraw acceleration is enabled. If the adapter reads a generic name (Standard VGA or Microsoft Basic Display), the vendor driver is not installed. Use Device Manager to uninstall the display adapter (choose to remove driver software if offered), then download and install the latest driver from the GPU maker (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel) and do a clean install option if available.

Only after the driver is correct, restore DirectX system files if necessary. On older Windows you can run the DirectX runtime installer from Microsoft; on Vista/7/10 DirectX components are delivered by the OS and Windows Update. Running System File Checker (sfc /scannow) can repair corrupted system DLLs that affect Direct3D. Also disable remote desktop, screen capture/overlay apps, and any third‑party tweaks while testing—they can force a non‑accelerated display.

If software steps fail, check hardware: reseat the card, try another PCIe/AGP slot, test the card in a different PC, and verify the PSU can supply required power. For older AGP cards also confirm BIOS AGP settings. If a known-good driver + correct DirectX still produces no 3D, the GPU or its power circuitry is likely at fault and replacement or warranty service is the next step. Collect the dxdiag Display tab lines (adapter name, driver date/version, acceleration flags) for vendor support.

ok, may be i'm mistaken about reinstalling DirectX. But you didn't answer my question about your video card. Have you tried to reinstall video drivers?
