Run "dxdiag", go to the DirectX Files tab, check that there are no problems, go to the Display tab, and test Direct Draw.
If everything works alright, post back saying so. _________________ This help is informational only. No representation is made or warranty given as to its content. User assumes all risk of use. Cyan~Fire assumes no responsibility for any loss or delay resulting from such use.

It works now, mad jack told me to go download DDRAW.DLL and replace it with the current one in system folders and then it worked. |

in the future, click on the error window and hit ALT+PRTSCRN to get a screenshot of _just_ the error window...so we can actually see the error |

Pardon?
Anyway, direct him to the correct place: SSDL.
Edit: Stupid forum made my period part of the link. Any way to fix that?
