Updating your graphics drivers can help tremendously whenever you get an error such as this. The game might have been corrupted when installing, so try to see if reinstalling your game works, too.

The drivers depend on what graphics card you have, first verify which one you have, then visit that company's site to find the drivers specific to your card.

NVIDIA Cards
AMD/Radeon Cards

Any other type of card driver can be found from their respective web sites, I just put these two links to get you started.
