After I hit the free download for a game and then click to play a notice
saying, D3DDEVTYPE_HAL not supported. and it won't let me into the
game. Why?

Is the game you downloaded supported by your operating system?

Do you have Direct X installed, steps 2 - 5 on this link:

Otherwise since this is a Windows Update newsgroup you should take this to a
forum specific to the game or maybe your operating system:
