      Put the summary of the bug you're having here

      I expected the game to start up as normal.

      The game crashed on opening and will not start up.

      I have this "DirectX error" that I get every time I try to start up any game on my computer. The only way to fix it is to restart my PC which is a long process that I really do not want to have to go through every time.

      I have linked a screenshot of me trying to open up "Solitaire" which comes with Windows 7.
