Hello. I run Windows 7 guest on my Mac OS host. I want to play a game on windows, but the game I'm trying to play requires things that the driver on VirtualBox doesn't have. The driver i have on the windows 7 guest OS is VBoxDisp 4.3.12.0.
Required You Have
Hardware T&L Yes No
Pixel Shader version 2.0 0.0
Vertex Shader version 2.0 0.0

Is there any way to install driver that supports this? You can add my Skype if you want, the name is amgawesome

Thx for the help.

Have you enabled the 3D Acceleration and installed the guest additions in the guest?

You can't - it isn't software like DirectX is, it's built into the hardware of your graphics card. A lot of games say they require "Pixel Shader 2.0 or higher" - this just means your graphics card has to have it. If your graphics card hasn't got a pixel shader and your game won't run, then you'll need a new card that's got it.
VirtualMachines are not designed to run games. If you have an older Windows game you would like to run you could try PlayOnMacs. It supports many older games.
