Many Modern Warfare 2 players have experienced the “No Supported DXGI Adapter was Found” error, preventing them from launching the game. If you’re one of them, don’t panic. There’s an easy fix that you can try.
Firstly, make sure that you have installed the latest graphics driver available for your system. In this case, the latest driver is 5 to 6.86, which is available on GeForce Experience. Installing the latest driver should fix any flickering issues and perform just as well as the older driver.
If installing the latest driver isn’t enough to fix the error, the next step is to check for updates on Battlenet. Click on the cogwheel icon at the bottom of the screen and select “check for updates.” If this works, the game should launch without any issues.
However, if checking for updates doesn’t fix the error, you’ll need to hit “scan and repair.” Let the scan run for about a minute and then cancel it with the “X” button at the bottom of the screen. The play button should turn into an update button, which you should click. After clicking, the play button will appear again, and the game should launch.
You may encounter a “problem with the shaders” message when the game launches. If this happens, you’ll need to re-download the shaders, and the game will restart. After the shader installation is complete, the game should run fine.
If these steps don’t work for you, leave a comment, and the community will try to help you fix the issue. Don’t worry; this error isn’t as serious as it may seem. Although it’s frustrating, it’s easy to fix.
So, there you have it. Follow these steps to fix the “No Supported DXGI Adapter was Found” error and get back to playing Modern Warfare 2.
