errorr

[poplast]

when i load a cg its give me an error message that says direct 3d device creation failed .. what do i do i want to play the game :huh:

 

[zaba_3]

install directx!!!!!!

www.microsoft.com/directx or simply goto windows update and find it in the listings

If it still fails try running "dxdiag", just type it in(without the quotes) in a run dialog(Start >> Run) and hit enter, there are numerous diagnostics, particularly in the "Display" tab.

zaba_3: no need for 6 exclamation marks and giving some useful advice instead of a 2 word post would have been better.

next time search.. it have been many threads about it..

i tried ever thing and after i did the dxdiag thing and run diagnostics it still doesnt work

if you installed DirectX 9 and it still tells you the error:
try switching from HAL to REF in the video plugin option (REF is reallly slow tho) or it's because your video card simply doesn't support DirectX HAL acceleration.... (shitty card).

my grafics card is a intel(R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV grafics controller i think thats it and i tried changing it to and it doesnt work i think mycomputer just sucks balls lol

hey 9cs out!!!! im on dialup so i cant download it, but the next pcgamer disc should come with it.....

ok well i found a thread about how much intels gfx cards suck so dolphin will never work on my comp :'( and that really sucks but maybe when its complete it will work but till then im screwed

 

[Knuckles]

just upgrade! if you don't have a lot of money, get a GF4MX (at least, cheap) or if you want to get full effect on dolphin, for a bit more, a GFX5200....

 

[DOGG]

I wouldn't recommend a GF4 MX. It's just a fast GF2. A GF3 TI500 would be a better choice

 

[poplast]

is there a way that when dolphin is comptete it might work?

 

[jareg]

With that card of yours i doubt it lain:
