Hello,

on my computer (windowsXP with latest patches, DirectX9.28, NVIDIA 7600GT), world of goo crashes with "Failed creating Direct3D Device". Version is 1.30. What to do?

Regards
mattes

You're SURE that there isn't already a topic on this?

No. I'm even sure there are already some of these. But there is not a solution  :(

I've already reinstalled the Graphics driver and directX. I also changed the resolution.

Thank you for browsing first. If there is not anything here, then I suggest double checking the software and hardware. Look at all the FAQs on DirectX and World of Goo. When you're done, post your findings. If you don't find anything, contact 2D Boy. Somehow.
