    Tried searching for "enable Directx" option in the video configuration but it wasn't there. Need a little help here, because i tried all means possible and still isn't solving the problem. Thanks.

    is it a freshly installed VM? go on and reinstall Parallels Tools from the Virtual Machine menu --> Reinstall parallels tools
