I downloaded all the files 1 through 7 including the patch 1 through 2 , I installed the game then ran the patch. everything completed just fine. however game wont run when you click the shortcut or the exe file to start the game simply has a black screen then says error oc cured program stopped . this is the last damn time i buy anything from Gamestop. Steam has all this crap figured out and can apparently do this with bare minimum fuss I just want the damn game to work

The Witcher 3 requires a graphics card that can run DX11. I believe the GTX 285 can only run DX10. The hardware requirement is independent of running DX11 software on your PC.

Your graphic card doesn't support DirectX 11 (only 10). You need to upgrade your PC with a new one if you want to play Witcher 3. Even the Steam version wouldn't run on your PC.

Minimum system requirements - Windows:
OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or 64-bit Windows 8 (8.1)
Processor: Intel CPU Core i5-2500K 3.3 GHz or AMD CPU Phenom II X4 940
Memory: RAM 6 GB
Graphics: Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 660 / AMD GPU Radeon HD 7870
Please mind that we only officially support full-size desktop graphics cards
Hard Drive: 35 GB of available space
DirectX: 11
