Issue I'm having on Windows 10

I have been trying to get this game to work on Windows 10 and am, not surprisingly, having the exact same issue as when I try to play Chameleon, which apparently uses the same engine as H&D 2. I have the box CD copy, I install it, and when I try to run the .exe, I get no response but I do get a text file in the game folder saying:

LS3D Engine V5.43.3 Oct 3 2003 GetVer:543
ERROR! DirectX version is lower than 8.1 !
This is the exact same issue as Chameleon (That game has alot more to it, but this seems to be the only thing holding it back.)
I have tried installing the DX redists from MS's website and that does nothing. Is there anyone who can help with this? Both of these games look spectacular and I am dying to play them on my modern rig (which I'm assuming is part of the problem lol).
my specs are:
i7 7700k
GTX 1070
16 gb DDR4
