Hi, After using FS2002 without any problems, I suddenly get a message that the program starts in 'Safe Mode' because my system is unable to use hardware accelaration. I checked to see if something was wrong, but in my Display Settings, Hardware Acceleration is enabled. I also checked my display settings with DXdiag and came around an error in Direct3D which I think is related. This is the error message: Direct3D 7 test results: Failure at step 8 (Creating 3D Device): HRESULT = 0x8007000e (Out of memory) The DirectX version is 9.0b and I updated my drivers to the latest available without succes. I'm sure it has worked before, so I must have (un)installed something that brought up the problem. Does anyone had something similar or know anything to solve it?
