I've purchased a license, created an account, but when i try to launch the game, I am getting an error reading "
Pixel Format Not Accelerated "

I've followed the instructions, but there is not an update for my video driver.

You can find the results of my dxdiag here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1f27ff0364d9080c7225

I'd really like to start using this game, can you please help?

AMD does not give supported drivers on Windows 8.1 for your graphics card. You have 3 options.

- Try the instructions in the 8th post in this thread.

- If the above does not work, you can try the instructions in the 4th post in this thread.

- As a last resort you can downgrade to Windows 8. I haven't seen the above solutions fail yet though.
