Ok, big problem here. As the title suggests I'm using A6.60. I've tried executing the engine many times on multiple setups and different video cards. When running the engine on a pc that has a 9800+ card in it the engine pops up this error; Error E1242: Can't open video device. According to the manual:

Quote:
E1242 is issued when the D3D device can be opened, but a video device is not available for the given resolution. The engine tries some lower and higher resolutions before giving up. A possible reason could be that an extremely high nexus setting consumed all the virtual memory. So keep the nexus well below 200 MB.


However, It's not nexus issue and it's not a resolution issue, that's already been proven, it doesn't even open the game or try to change resolution, it just crashes as soon as it shows .........done. The pc that has the 9800 in it previously had a GeForce 6600 and had no problems at all, the only hardware change to the pc was the 9800, no new cpu, memory etc.

We've tested the engine on the following chipsets:

Geforce 6100 - no problem
Geforce 6600 - no problem
Geforce 7600 - no problem
Ati X1950 Pro - no problem
Ati 9800 - no problem
Geforce 8800 - no problem
Geforce 9800 - problem mentioned above

We also tested the engine on another pc that had a 9800 in it and it got the same problem. All of the pcs tested have Windows XP on them and have the latest DirectX 9 and their drivers are up-to-date.

I'm thinking the problem has to do with the GeForce 9 series, but I'm not totally sure.

Even if this is the problem is there a solution and/or has this been reported before?
