Default Re: Crashing Problems with the 2019 Upgrade

1)The directx error is seen if you are trying to run the game at a resolution the graphics card cannot handle. See if 800x600 in windowed mode runs for you. If it does, then all is working fine. Then try other resolutions that are in the range your graphics card supports.

2)As described in the game guide, the use of a hidden windows task bar and/or task bars not in the usual place (at the bottom of the screen) can cause the graphics engine to misread the window size. which will give you the same DirectX error. Have you ensured that auto-hide is off?
