I've looked through the forums before posting here and have had to success. Maybe I've overlooked it I do not know. I am planning on buying a new laptop but the one was I looking at says it has Non DX11-Compatiable graphics. Will I be able to play PWi with that or should I look for a different laptop?b:shockedb:cry

    PWI doesn't utilize DX11 so you should be okay.

    PWI is not a Direct X 10/10.1/11 game, it uses Direct X 9.0c if i am correct.
    If your graphics are messed up(most likely during a new windows installation) don't forget to download the latest Direct X9.0c revision. (This is not included into Vista, 7 and 8)
    Atleast that's what worked for me, after attempting to play the game on my laptop a while ago.

    *Edit: Also be sure that you are using the latest Drivers for your graphics card for the best results.

    ^ what they said. not alot of games atm uses directx11.
    though i recomend "furture proofing" yourself if you got the cash to spend.
