You cannot upgrade the pixel shader without buying a new graphics card. Usually, this is not possible on a laptop without buying a completely new one.

How do you upgrade pixel shader?

Pixel shader technology is hard-coded into the video card and its drivers. If you have a very fast processor and a good amount of ram, you may be able to get around the pixel shader requirement by downloading "3DAnalyze" or "Swiftshader 2.0" to emulate pixel shader. More likely, the best option is for you to simply replace your video card with one which has native support for pixel shader. Video cards with pixel shader 3.0 are very common these days, it is not an expensive upgrade & will improve performance on other programs as well.

Can you download Pixel Shader 2 or higher?

No, the Pixel Shader version describes the capability of your hardware. If you're getting that error from a game you will probably need to upgrade your video card. There is a way though to use software emulation but its best if you have the actual hardware that uses pixel shader.

If my computer has an unsupported pixel shader version 2.0 how do I fix it?

You need to upgrade your graphics card to something capable of running this software. (any ATI or nVidia card made after 2002 should have Pixel Shader 2, it will be written on the box) If you're trying to run it on a laptop then you are probably out of luck as they're not upgradable.

Pixel shader 1.3 (and other variants) are hard-coded into the video card and its drivers. If you have a very fast processor and a good amount of ram, you may be able to get around the pixel shader requirement by downloading "3DAnalyze" or "Swiftshader 2.0" to emulate pixel shader.
