Re: Directdraw error
Update DirectX from the cover disk. With luck the problem will disappear.

No such luck.
Re: Directdraw error
G'day Mathew. If your graphics cards a recent Nvida chipset card you have to install Direct X drivers BEFORE you install the graphics card drivers.
Set your graphics adaptor to Standard VGA and restart your system. Reinstall Direct X 9b or c and restart again. Then reinstall your Nvida Drivers. All should be sweet.
Regards
Ben.
