Solved

Hello, I recently bought the game Farming Simulator 2015, and when I try to play on a desktop computer they tell me to install Shader Model 3.0. After some research on forums, I understood that it’s a problem with my graphics card. Anyway, I copy the game folders onto a USB drive, and install it on my laptop, but since I don’t have a CD/DVD drive, it says “Insert the game disk into the drive” but I can’t, and I don’t know what to do... Basically, is it possible to play without the CD? Can the graphics card problem be solved? Do external drives that you plug in via USB exist? Thank you in advance for your answers.

    Hello,

    Have you installed the latest drivers for your graphics card?

    There are indeed external CD readers connected via USB. A search on online shopping sites is in order :)

      Good evening, thanks for your response. I tried installing the latest drivers, but it doesn't work. I don't even know exactly what graphics card I have; I only know that it's an "Nvidia."

      You can go check in the Device Manager. You should find your graphics card there and its name.

      Once obtained, you can directly go to the NVIDIA site, download the driver that corresponds to your card by choosing the right OS, and install it.
