Log On Problem

[_______________Vigar]

Yesterday I was having a problem (well, up until yesterday) with the appearance of my screen, and very kindly, several of you responded rapidly with some help. I had email the bug to FC as well, and they got back to me with a graphics driver to install, prettty quickly. However, now that I have installed the driver, Im unable to log into AO, and keep getting error messages as follows:

DDERR - INVALIDPIXELFORMAT

and then

RUNTIME ERROR
C/Program..../AOnline/CLIENTR.EXE
requested to terminate in an unusual way.

Needless to say, its a little frustrating, because I just equipped some new armor and implants, and well, you get the idea.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

When exactly do u get this message?

Windowed mode?

DDERR looks like it might be something to do with DirectDraw Errors. Maybe something to do with a bad DX file or maybe something to do with Video Card Drivers?


Just guessing.

If trying to switch from Windowedmode to full screen, use the SETTINGS button then inside find the box for Screen. The one at character select crashes me everytime.
