I just downloaded LoL on the windows partition of bootcamp.

Here's my DxDiag:

According to your DxDiag, your video card drivers are from 2009. I strongly suggest that you update them, as this is most likely the cause of your issue

And also according to my DxDiag, does my video card driver seem to be the only cause of this problem?

Hey Angels and Kings,

You can find our knowledge base article on how to update your video drivers at this link:

https://support.leagueoflegends.com/...o-card-drivers

The trick is figuring out what kind of video card or device your computer is using. Once you know this you can usually go to the manufacturer's website to download the latest drivers.

If you're still running into problems getting the latest drivers feel free to reply here. I can't promise that an Ambassador will be able to return your reply, but another player or Wrenchmen may be able to jump in and help.

However, if you're still not finding the answers you need I encourage you to contact a Tech Specialist directly. You can do so at this link: https://support.leagueoflegends.com/home

Thanks for replying again,

But so since I'm using a mac to run windows I assume theres no difference?

Name of video card: Standard VGA graphics adapter
Manufacturer: (Standard Display Types)
Chip type: NVIDIA

So according to the info above, does that mean I have to update my driver on the NVIDIA site?
If so, What product type and product series should I download?
Heres where I'm at: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
