Demigods won't startup

November 24, 2009 8:25:34 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

        I am getting the error unable to create Direct3D please be sure to load the most current drivers. This started happening after I downloaded the latest patch from Impulse. I have a Nvidia 8800 GTX and the game played fine before the download. I did upgrade the drivers to the latest available from nvidia to no affect. All my other games run fine.

Tried to find the Demigodslog.txt but didn't see it anywhere.

Here what the debugger put up:

 

GAL Exception: file : c:\Work\forge\main\code\src\libs\gpggal\Device.cpp(99)
