3D Graphics not working on any of my virtual machines

[Justice1995]

Hello, I have a question.

I was installing VMware Workstation Pro, and when I was accepting all terms, I got an error that 3d graphics won't be used on any of my virtual machines. According to the installer, it means that I DONT HAVE DirectX 11.1 but I do have DirectX 12. And when I ignore it and I try to boot into a virtual machine, it boots slow and the performance is really slow. The sound is choppy and laggy as well. I tried downgrading to an older version of VMware. I tried 1.16.0 and below the latest version. 

I'm getting sick of this.

Any solutions?

What you should look at is the Feature Levels in the Display tab of dxdiag. If the Feature Level does not have 11_1 that is probably why. Assuming right now you are using a discrete GPU, the problem could be because the GPU is does not support the 11_1/11_0 feature.

From the looks of it, the UHD 610 in the Celeron G5905 supports the 12_1 feature.

You could remove the discrete GPU and use the UHD 610 directly.

Alternatively, if you want to keep the discrete GPU with a monitor attached, you can enable the UHD 610 in the motherboard BIOS (there is no need to attach a display to the motherboard for the integrated graphics) but you add the following line in the vmx configuration file.

mks.dx11.vendorID = "0x8086"

That line should make use of the Intel UHD 610 instead of the discrete GPU.
