    Exclamation Direct 3D Device Creation Failed

    I opened my gcm game and it says "Direct 3D Device Creation Failed", and Dolphin Teaser crashed. I tried to find something about "Device Failed" in the forum, and I tried changing my desktop to 16bit colours, but it didn't work .......



    My video card is S3 Prosavage DDR(32MB video Ram,open GL supported).
    Direct 9.0b.
    The game is naruto2.
    CPU is Intel P4 2.4 GHz.
    Ram is 224MB DDR.
    OS is WinXP SP1.

    Thx for your time

    it either is a laptop or it is upgradable ... it would be hard to convince me that you can't take that 2.4Ghz CPU out of the motherboard and disconnect the Hard Drive (and so on, and so on). perhaps the Motherboard has no AGP slot ... then get a motherboard and video card.

    My computer is a laptop-based desktop....
    Think about a large-sized laptop then you can understand...
    No AGP slot, case not openable(so I can't take it apart), SCSI.......
    So whatever I buy, I can't install it onto my motherboard....T-T
    But I still don't want to give up Dolphin, so I come to ask if there is some other way to make it workable......orz

    Forget it. You're never going to run Dolphin (or any GC emulator I'd imagine) on an S3.
