What Causes DirectX 12 Errors in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?

Troubleshooting DirectX 12 Errors

1. Verify Windows Version: Ensure your PC runs Windows 10 or 11. If not, upgrading is necessary to resolve this issue.

2. Check DirectX Version: Even on Windows 10 or 11, verify your DirectX version:

• Open the Start menu and type "dxdiag".
• Run "dxdiag".
• Navigate to the "System" tab. Check the DirectX version listed. It should be 12.

3. Update DirectX (if necessary): If your DirectX version is outdated, Windows Update might offer an update. However, a full OS upgrade to Windows 10 or 11 is often the only solution for older systems.

4. Graphics Card Compatibility: If DirectX 12 is installed correctly, the problem might stem from your graphics card. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has minimum hardware requirements. Check Square Enix's official website for the recommended GPUs:

• AMD Radeon™ RX 6600*
• Intel® Arc™ A580
• NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 2060*

If your graphics card doesn't meet these minimum specs, upgrading your hardware is the solution.
