Default D;OS EE won't load for me

October 28th, 2015, 22:00
I took the last two days of the week off to play a little D:OS EE and I can't get it to run. It is installed and every time I go to load it I get this error mess.

Failed to create rendering device!

The application failed to create the rendering device. Please make sure you meet the minimum specifications!(DX11 compatible GPU with the latest drivers installed.)

Report Date: 10/28/2015
Report Time[hh:mm:ss]: 15:51:34
Driver Version: 9.17.10.4101
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro(6.3.9600)
Default Language: English (United States)
DirectX* Version: 11.0


Sword coast runs fine, POE white march runs fine, HMM 7 runs fine, I am not sure what is wrong here.

Yeah, it's the first thing I do. Also check to see if you have the latest video drivers. 9 times out of 10 these 2 things will fix these kinds of issues.

One more thing, it could be audio related. You may want to check to see if you are current on audio drivers.

Good luck!

It may be the BETAs, though I don't have experience with AMD. I only use the latest qualified drivers for Nvidia. I've had reliability problems with betas.

BTW, DirectX is different from video drivers. Should check that too.

A few weeks ago, AMD introduced the first products in the company’s next generation of high-end DirectX 11 graphics cards – the AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series. The Radeon HD 6800 Series represents AMD’s second-generation DirectX 11 capable architecture

Is a second card in the computer?
Maybe Windows gets confused.

There is a Larian dev posting stuff on steam for people with similar issues.

There is also a link in the thread to run a analyzing tool from Larian.

You might want to look into this, if your card really support DX11.

Ignore the Win7 hotfix, got to the "Guide for those who can't get the DDI hotfix to work​".

The proper error message should have been - "Inferior GPU detected. Please upgrade to Nvidia".
