Hi Michael, Thank you for following up on my problem, which is now solved (I found the place where to enable the hardware acceleration).
best regards
Jotell

Hi Michael

Just to confirm, I've just received this same error and it was as you said because I had turned off h/ware acceleration (to record a video in fact)

Hi Jotell & Steve - I've updated this message for future builds to give a bit better clue on what might be wrong.

It will now say:

Unable to create Direct3D9 device.
Possibly an unsupported older video card, or hardware acceleration is disabled.
Check Control Panel / Display / Settings / Advanced / Troubleshoot


- Michael
