• Critical error "cannot create directx device.

  If I have a microsoft game open freecell, solitaire, etc. and play any other game such as modern warfare 2, Farcry2, (a directx9 and directx 10 game) etc when I quit the game a critical error message "unable to create directx device" is on the desk. When I click OK the game frecell closes.  This has happened just recently. I ran dxdiag in 32 and 64 bit modes.  Direct sampling, Direct3D, and AGP Texture acceleration are enabled.  I reinstalled directx 9 c on microsoft web sites. DirectX 10 to reinstall not found. I reinstalled the video card and sound drivers, nothing works. I can play microsoft 2 or 3 games at the same time and their closure does not create a problem.  All directx 9 and 10 games perform without problem. I ran regedit and directx by default reg_S2 (value not set), but I was told it's ok.  I was invited by Windows 7 free technical support of the Microsoft Tech Support market Place forum. I was told by the technology which offers on my case that Windows 7 is not supported and it blew me off the coast.  A lot of people on the web with the same problem, but no answers.  Previous posts on the forum gave rise to no response or a work around that is not open two programs.  I want to fix the problem. JohnnyBoyz

  Try this, it worked for me on my Windows7 machine where games microsoft kept crashing with a directx error.
  1 - Create a new folder on your desktop and name it 'games' or something else.
  2 - Go to c:/program files and double-click the microsoft Games folder
  3 - there are folders for all installed games. Open each folder, one at a time and copy the .exe file and paste it into the new folder 'games '. Do NOT use the shortcut of Media Center.
  Some of the games require that you also to copy their files .dll with them in the new folder 'games '. For me, it was chess, Mahjong and Minesweeper. The rest of them worked without copying the .dll file.
  Open the game by clicking on it in the new 'games' folder, or make new shortcuts using the files in the new folder.
  This bypasses somehow with the Media Center, which seems to be the problem with the crash of directx.
  I hope it works for you!

• Unable to create DirectX device

  I used to play 'FREECELL' until I finished the game I left for a few hours and when I came back to my computer, there was an error that says error: unable to create DirectX device. I closed the error box and everything seems to work OK.

  Hello

  I had the same problem until I uninstalled a program to screen saver

  Hope this works

• Unable to create DirectX device on some computers. The error code is D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE.

  I'm sorry if this post is not in the right place, or if it is a duplicate. I couldn't find help anywhere for the problem that I am facing.

  I worked for a few days now trying to get a DirectX control to load on some computers in my organization. The code we have written works fine on some machines (perhaps 50%), but fails to initialize DirectX during the creation of the unit on others machines with an exception containing the code of error D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE. We use the DirectX 9 SDK for development. We did ensure that the DirectX (version 10) runtime is installed on the computers of problem as well (we believe that the runtime must be backward compatible). I wrote the code to attempt to create a device using all possible combinations of the available settings and still no device can be created! The code I used to try to find any working device is less. I'm doing something wrong? Code (written in c#) starts in the InitializeGraphics() function and calls the GetAcceptableDevice() function. The GetAcceptableDevice() function returns zero on our computers of problem:

  private GetAcceptableDevice device (DeviceType deviceTypes, Format [] backBufferFormats, DepthFormat [] depthStencilFormats []) {}
  List acceptableAdapterFormats As new List();
  {foreach (adapter AdapterInformation in Manager.Adapters)
  {foreach (DeviceType deviceType in deviceTypes)
  {foreach (backBufferFormat in backBufferFormats Format)
  Now, make sure that the depth buffer meets one of the required formats.
  {foreach (DepthFormat depthStencilFormat in depthStencilFormats)
  PresentParameters pp = new PresentParameters();
  pp. AutoDepthStencilFormat = depthStencilFormat;
  pp. BackBufferCount = 1;
  pp. BackBufferFormat = backBufferFormat;
  pp. BackBufferHeight is this. Height;
  pp. BackBufferWidth is this. Width;
  pp. FullScreenRefreshRateInHz = 0; Must be 0 in windowed mode.
  pp. DeviceWindow = this;
  pp. DeviceWindowHandle is this. Handle;
  pp. EnableAutoDepthStencil = true;
  pp. ForceNoMultiThreadedFlag = false;
  pp. MultiSample=MultiSampleType.None;//Anti-alias settings
  pp. MultiSampleQuality = 0;
  pp. PresentationInterval = PresentInterval.Default;
  pp. PresentFlag = PresentFlag.None;
  pp. SwapEffect=SwapEffect.Discard;//Required to be scrapped for anti-aliasing.
  pp. windowed = true; Must set to true for the controls.
  Treatment of vertex createFlags=CreateFlags.SoftwareVertexProcessing;//Software CreateFlags should always work.
  Device functionalDevice = null;
  try {}
  functionalDevice = new device (adapter. Adapter, deviceType, createFlags, pp);
  Return functionalDevice;
  } catch {}
  Just skip it and try the following.
  }
  }
  }
  }
  }
  Returns a null value.
  }

  public void InitializeGraphics() {}
  Device = MakeBasicDevice ();
  {if(Device==null)}
  Device = GetAcceptableDevice)

  );
  {if(Device==null)}
  throw new Exception ("could not get an acceptable DirectX graphics adapter. Your graphics card may not support DirectX. ») ;
  }
  }
  }

  I also read on various places on the Internet that a type of software with the software vertex processing will work always, even if it's slow. I also wrote code to try to create a unique feature of software with the software vertex processing and apparently not worked either. The code is as follows:

  private MakeBasicDevice() {} device
  try {}
  PresentParameters pp = new PresentParameters();
  pp. AutoDepthStencilFormat = DepthFormat.D16;
  pp. BackBufferCount = 1;
  pp. BackBufferFormat = Manager .Adapters .default .CurrentDisplayMode .format.
  pp. BackBufferHeight is this. Height;
  pp. BackBufferWidth is this. Width;
  pp. FullScreenRefreshRateInHz = 0; Must be 0 in windowed mode.
  pp. DeviceWindow = this;
  pp. DeviceWindowHandle is this. Handle;
  pp. EnableAutoDepthStencil = true;
  pp. ForceNoMultiThreadedFlag = false;
  pp. MultiSample = MultiSampleType.None;
  pp. MultiSampleQuality = 0;
  pp. PresentationInterval = PresentInterval.Default;
  pp. PresentFlag = PresentFlag.None;
  pp. SwapEffect = SwapEffect.Discard;
  pp. windowed = true; Must set to true for the controls.
  DefaultDevice device = new Device(Manager.Adapters.Default.Adapter,DeviceType.Reference,this,CreateFlags.SoftwareVertexProcessing,pp);
  DefaultDevice return;
  } catch {}
  }
  Returns a null value.
  }

  One might think that DirectX may run on any graphics card, even if it ran slowly on the low-end cards. Is it possible that DirectX does not work on some graphics cards? It is somewhat disturbing, because about half of our computers will not initialize our DirectX control and our control of OpenGL works fine on these machines. Is there something else we can try, perhaps related to some system settings that are more fundamental than the initialization code? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  ¿Hay alguna forma of simular device este desde LabVIEW Señal analogica adquiera y?

  Espero haberme well explained.

  Hola Inmacu,

  Tal y como lo has hecho esta. Yo he terminado el codigo para as veas como quedaria you he hecho una captured.

• What is a directx device?

  I tried to play a game that I downloaded, but when I play a message says that I need a device "DirectX". What is a DirectX device?

  Need For Speed World.

  Do you have otherwise?
  http://systemreq.info/2010/05/need-for-speed-world/

  If so - I suggest you figure out what audio device what video device you have and visit the web page of the manufacturer for each. Download and install the software and specific drivers for each device and each restart.  Then try to reinstall the game.

• How can I change the size of the document when creating a device independent postscript file?

  I need to create a device-independent PS file, but cannot change the size of the document (in gray in the dialog box). How can I do this?

  Install the ADPDF9. Description of the printer PPD and use that instead of independent device. See the comments in creation of PostScript files in Snow Leopard for print Workflows older | InDesignSecrets

  But my guess is that you print to PS to do a book, and there are better ways. Much easier to export a standard PDF file and use the functionality of Acrobat brochure, for example. There are also large scripts and plugins for ID.

• Creating a device with only one key Windows 8 start?

  I recently bought a new HARD drive for my laptop and my original hard drive went too well to get an ISO out of it. My other computers are Windows 7, and I do not have a backup. I found this:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

  but it's only for the upgrade of the computer you are using. I thought I saw a boot for 8.1 media where you just need the key, but I can't find anything for Windows 8. Help, please! I don't want to buy a new copy, when I have my key :(

  Hello

  The site offers 8 and 8.1... I don't think that you have to install...

  Run through the process, you will be able to create one or Flash Drive, DVD, record an ISO (better idea)... It can be converted into anything...

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

  I don't think that it will work with OEM pre-installed Windows...

  Is there another link to download Win 8.1 which requires no key until it is installed.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  Depending on your installation, you may need a temporary license key to win 8.1, then after installation you can enable it with the key Win 8...

• MAF: Unable to create the device

  Hey all:

  I created a new simple application to the MAF.  This app is at the base, has some features with basic behaviors.

  #1: when I run "Clean All"--> CRG cancels the CLEAN

  #2: to deploy I get ' feature was not created.

  Any direction is welcome.  I would like to start working with the MAF & new features.  I need to get some confidence in this new tool under my belt before I'll spend before creating plugins of Cordova.

  

  

  Hey all: If you encountered similar problems, here is the fix:

  1. Confirm the fix has been successfully installed.
     1. Help of Goto-> comments
     2. Tab 'extensions'
     3. Click the column name (on order)
        1. Check that the extension for "Model ADF data control adapters" is different from "ADF Model preview Editor".
           1. If they are the same, you have a problem installing hotfix-> and may need to reinstall JDev
  2. Delete the current application & restart simple
     1. That was my problem.  Some are corrupt.  I rebooted a brand-new application with 1 Basic function, it has deployed & ran and started building from there...

  Happy to all my fellow Nerds/Nerdettes of coding!

  Hi Aarthishetty,

  Run the DXDIAG in the start search bar. The result should tell you what the problem is. I guess that you will have to install the latest version of directX on your computer.

  Swarm?  Specify which game it is please and also make sure that you meet the min REQ. Some games do not support integrated graphics.  You can find in the upper part of the steam > help > System info.

  Also, makea discussion on Steam in this game and you will get more responses, make sure that you validate specifications of the system, but without them, no one has any idea of what is your prob.
