Press Ctrl + alt + delete once to open up task manager, click on the application tab and right click on "software update", select maximize.

It will show you what software/driver/patch update you need to install before you can play the game.

It could be anything, Nvidia driver, ATI driver, CPU driver, audio driver, etc. The game will automatically detects them and show you, but its bugged hence its minimized and cant be maximized with the left click, you need to use the task manager to maximize it.

oh, the auto update feature cant updates everything, you may need to manually download some driver/patch from the internet, but at least it'll tell you what you need to download.
