You need to install (or re-install) Directx 11.

Are your drivers up-to-date? Is your PC behaving strangely otherwise while in Windows? Did you change something in the BIOS, e.g. voltage, overclocking?

What is your motherboard make & model?
Intel I5-2310 2 x 2.90GHz

2 x 2.90ghz seems to be rather high, the max ghz is only 3.20 ghz.

The ms-7758 is also known as MSI Z77A-G43 (MS-7758)
Firstly, you may need to address the issue of the GPU being around 75C, it is a bit hot.
Unplug the PC, then clean out all the dust from the video card and the motherboard, check the PSU for dust. Try to keep the PC at least a foot above the floor if the PSU fan is bottom mounted.
Make sure the insides of the PC is not cluttered or is lacking in air flow, you may need to add a photo of the innards for us to see.
Upload the photo to www.tinypic.com then add the IMG tag reference to the detals.

Many Pc magazines have a bonus disk of free software and drivers including Directx, or you can download it -

Download it and double-click the exe, it will install itself.

I guess we've found the solution. For a power of 650W that PSU is damn cheap, not to say I've never heard of this brand, they don't have a website and there aren't any reviews on the web. One customer on amazon wrote:

"Upon further inspection with a voltmeter i found that not only was this so called 650w PSU not delivering the promised 36 amps, but each rail was delivering a staggering 11 amps each.... for a total of 22amps.
This is incredibly weak for a 650w PSU and is the kind of output i would expect from a good 300w supply."

That's a typical behaviour for a cheap PSU. If that's right - and I strongly believe it is - the PSU would deliver just 264 Watt at the 12V-Rail. Your graphics card and CPU can consume up to 265 Watt together. You can see, your power supply is just too weak. I'd highly recommend you to buy a new one and particularly, a good one. If you don't do it, there's a high possibilty your current PSU will give up its ghost soon if you're lucky. If not, it will take other components with it. You shouldn't play games until you have it replaced, or operate at high capacity otherwise.

A good 450W PSU from a high quality brand like Seasonic or Enermax is more than enough. Or 500W from a good quality brand, like Cooler Master, OCZ, Aerocool etc.
