Does anyone know how to enable DirectX features? (such as DirectDraw Acceleration, Direct3D Acceleration, etc.)

I am using the on-die graphics from a core i5 (Intel HD 3000). I am trying to play a game and I keep getting a DirectX error ("DirectX encountered an unrecoverable error") and then I saw in dxdiag that all the display features were "not available". I know that the on-die graphics can play the game (I have seen it done before) I just don't know how to proceed. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks that did it. I went to Intel's website and downloaded it. For some reason I assumed that since it wasn't a physical video card that it wouldn't need drivers.
