Hey all, been working with GameStudio for a while now and I just recently (a few weeks ago) ran into a problem. It started intermittently and now happens every time i try to test my game from sed. The error I get is "Error E1242: Can't open video device".
It seems to happen before any of my code is run. Here is the logfile I used -Diag to generate (stuff in brackets is stuff I removed):
