Cannot create 3d device:

[BenMorton 0]

I recently bought Operation Flashpoint Game of the Year Edition but when I try and run the game I get the following error.

Cannot create 3d device:

Adapter 0 (Hercules 3d Prophet 9600/9600Pro Series) FullScreen

Resolution 1023x768, format X8R8G8B8/D24s8, refresh 75hz.

Error D3DERR_OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY

So far I have tried:

· Updating GFX Drivers, Motherboard Chipset Drivers.

· Reinstalling OFP.

· Disabling and Re-enabling the DirectDraw Accel & Direct3d Accel from Directx.

· Increasing and decreasing Aperture size from bios.

· Installing 1.96Beta.

· Using the –nomap stuff in OFP short cut extension.

Have H/W T&L on? May (or may not) be the problem.

If you can't toggle it off, try using an older driver for your video card. Keep your newer driver backed up just in case. May have to try a few different driver versions. I noticed some new drivers do not allow you to disable T&L. Worked good for me Direct3D w/o T&L (and old drivers). Just a suggestion.

You may have to run FlashpointPreferences.exe again to disable it.

Warning: Trying older drivers may crash your system. Restart in safe mode and set it back to the new one again if it does.

I remember having this problem before, but then it suddenly went away. All my other games work fine but it's with OFP in specific.
