Yankee4Life Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Mvp 2005 runs very well on Windows 7. Have you tried to start it in administrative mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? We would be able to assist you better if you listed your laptop's specs. In most cases you would have to make sure that your drivers are up to date on your laptop. Also, the game will play on any version of DirectX above 9 as long as your video card is a DirectX 9 capable card or higher (mostly every piece of video hardware released from 2006 onward is DX9+ capable). DirectX 11 came with Windows 7 so there's no actual need to install Dx9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother you are missing the display drivers on your laptop (It's an HP G62, so the card is an AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4250). Install the ones you need here (I found the make and model) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YankeeNU Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 having this same issue, "MVP Baseball 2005 Requires DirectX 9 and hardware graphics acceleration" I have Windows 7, HP Laptop with Intel HD Graphics 4000 with DirectX 11, assuming this Intel video card is a DirectX 9 capable card or higher since it runs DirectX 11. Any ideas? I've tried downloading DirectX 9 itself - still trying to research a solution so thought I would post it here. I also downloaded patch 5 as directed for an ideal installation. (The game was installed using original 2 discs I have had from over the years). Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
