"Your search for « detect a » returned 36 result/s."

The same answers should have been in all 36 of those. 

However, on the top page, here is MY OWN quote you skipped past.

This error message is occasionally triggered by a failed communication link among the softwares dealing with the game's graphics, in a few cases. the video drivers, but more commonly, Direct3D, in the form of Dx9.  Uncommonly, it might be the PhysX functions.  Somewhat commonly, some part of the game's code is corrupted and the game itself must be reinstalled.  If you do have a supported video card, and do understand how those components are related to the requirements, try those graphical elements' reinstalls in that order.

It doesn't make any difference whether it's Vista or Windows 7. Dx9, not Dx11, is used by the game, exactly as already described.  You can't stop Dx9's install and still run the game. The video driver, Dx9, PhysX (yes, for CPUs, so includes Radeons), and the game itself all have to work together, and in your case, they aren't doing so yet.

I meant that the video card supports dx11 not that i'm running on it.

So this is a software problem then, because i have installed allot of demanding games, and all worked perfectly till dragon age, if i reinstall to windows xp will there be any difference ?

Assuming you mean that you have a dual-boot setup available, then there's not as much likelihood of becoming confused during the game install and stopping the update of Dx9 (if it says it wants to do so; it may be happy with the current Dx9 version you already have).

It's checking for pixel shader SM-3, I believe, eliminating video cards older than about four years old, and low end cards that did not ever have SM-3.

(As of February 23, 2011, when I am adding this edit, the DA2 Demo has been out for about 18 hours or so, and this particular error message has been appearing there also.  In at least one case, by checking the ratio of height to width, for the video screen, and when found wrong, setting it correctly to suit the display has relieved the symptom.) 

See also the very last comment added in this particular thread about another way of doing the same thing regarding the screen ratio.

Ok so is there a solution to this problem, something that does not involve installing another operating system only for a game...

Ok i have figured it out, it was a very simple solution that i stumbled across accidentally.
The problem was from the resolution settings, mine was 1400-900 and the game does not support these setting and wont strat with a message "Failed to detect a supported video card"
The solution was in "C:\\Users\\User\\Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\Settings" dragonage.ini changing fullscreen-1 to 0 and then from the game choosing a resolution that can be supported.
And BAM THE GAME STARTED HAAAA


Edit: I'm waiting for a reply to my ingenius breakthrough B)

Even the forum's own badly crippled excuse for a search would have found this one (and there are thirty-some-odd more of them, at the very least).  I prefer this one over the longer one started by Mesgynk (name is something similar to that). 

(Edited a couple of hours later.  Out of context, that new comment I've added doesn't work as a standalone.  But this morning, a new arrival who didn't want to search the archives or to read the stickies repeated the same old song and dance about this old error message again, and was referred to this thread as an example of what had already been answered so many times before.)
