Angels,

Your appropriate drivers are specific to your system, you need to know what hardware you have in order to be able to download the correct software.

Can you tell what software I have to download?

That's not a video card, that means you have generic drivers installed, which is why you're getting that message in the first place.

Hi Angels and Kings,

Are you running Windows through bootcamp? In order to get the most up to date drivers all you have to do is get the latest Mac update for Bootcamp.*

*Disclaimer: I am not a Mac expert.

Another thing you might try is closing all other windows before booting the game. I have seen some players get this problem if their VRAM is full when launching the game.

what I don't understand is why the launcher worked fine yesterday and not today. How can that be a driver issue? I haven't done or changed anything on my computer since then, please explain.

I am playing on a mac and found that installing the bootcamp update 3.3 fixes this problem
