Direct3D not available

Hi,

I have a very powerful server. It has no monitor and no dedicated graphics card.
However, the CPU has an integrated graphics chip on the motherboard (Ivy Bridge).

Here are the hardware specs:
CPU: Xeon 8-core
Motherboard: Asus P8H77-M
RAM: 32 GB
HDD: 2x2 TB RAID-0

I want to use an application that uses Direct3D technology. I want to use this application using VNC (as it has no monitor on the machine).

Code:

SOLVED My own problem.
The Fix is to download the Intel HD Graphics Driver from INTEL's website (don't go to motherboard's website, it won't work).

Then install the *Windows 7* driver (there is none for Windows Server 2008).

Direct3D is enabled now and works fine :)

Very happy :D
