I want to add a conditional format to a cell if 2 criteria are met in 2 other cells. For example I want cell B3 to highlight yellow if cell D3 isn't blank and cell G3 doesn't contain an "x"

By contain, do you mean isn't equal to "x" or doesn't contain the letter "x" amongst other characters?
If the former, try:
=AND(D3<>"",G3<>"x")
else try
=AND(D3<>"",ISNA(SEARCH("x",G3))
