It says that I need to update my graphics drivers by they are already updated to the most recent version. I am also running Windows 8.

Here is the graphics driver I am using:

Thanks!

Never download drivers from sites other than your Graphics manufacturer or your computer's OEM, unless you know where you are getting the driver from.

If you seen this page, please give us the link to your DxDiag.

Here is my DxDiag. Thanks for your help!

Also I don't think I'm using that driver. I just searched for my driver version and that came up. I was trying to find out if I had the latest drivers and that site seemed to say that I was.

So this is one of those forums where you create a new thread for every little question no matter how similar it is to someone elses? Gotcha. No problem.
