Hello,

Recently, I installed Ubuntu but I am getting the following error message when starting World of Warcraft. I have installed the latest version of DirectX but the error remained same. Any suggestion would be helpful to resolve this problem.

Thanks in advance.

World of Warcraft shows error on Ubuntu

Hello Stacy P Caballero,

You need an emulator for playing Windows games on your Ubuntu OS. Anyway, if you have the emulator installed and you still can't play, make sure you have your video card's driver up to date, your Ubuntu OS up to date and as well make sure that you have at least Net Framework 3.5 installed.

Take care!
