Hi!

I need help.
When i try to run a game called "TextTwist2.exe" there's a message pop up that says "failed to read the device capabilities. Please make DirectX is enabled on your computer. [5].

So i search on google, how to enable it and there says that i need to go to dxdiag. But after i checked in dxdiag, in DirectX features says "not available"

SO WHAT I NEED TO DO?

i dont know how to fix this, please help!

First of all your post will probably be closed by a moderator because of the way it was worded. You aren't supposed to use titles like help me please.It is against forum rules.
You can try reading the help file from Microsoft in the link below.

Within the game you are playing there should be settings or options that you can go to it probably will be the graphic options and you just be able to choose direct X via the drop down menu and save it it should run normally after.

I did some google searching and found the following post via the direct X forums

Let me know how you go...
