Start CoH without DirectX checks

I have an issue where my computer will always fail the Directx checks over and over again. I automatically run the DirectX installer/patcher when it starts, but it never fixes it. It's almost definitely a problem with a specific piece of software I'm running (I have run into this before).

Is there a way to run Coh with switches to force OpenGL or a No DirectX check? All my other games are running fine, no issues, from Starcraft II to LFD2. No issues.

Just keep running into this on CoH. I have to play on a lesser system at the moment, and my powerhouse is being left behind.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

If you follow the instructions on Hyperstrike's thread below we can get a much better idea of the problem.
Post the details back in this thread.

CoH uses OpenGL - no need to set anything.
