-The problem it says im having is about Direct x ."Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics addapters in this system! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate."

To be honest. im not all that clued up about laptops so i would appreciate a straightforawrd answer, and if it is infact possible to play this game on my laptop.

try downloading and installing Directx 9 here is the link. sometimes it needs a directx 9 file even if you have directx 10 installed.

Download DirectX 9.0c (full package) - the latest version of Direct X

The error is questioning your video card.

"Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics addapters in this system! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate."

What video card do you have? Do yo have vista drivers for it?
