I've been trying to get Halo PC installed on my new system for about a week and I've been getting the same error. The classic Fatal error when trying to initialize directdraw. I cannot figure out a way to get rid of that error.
I have a core2duo running at 2ghz, 2gb of ram, a Geforce 7300 GS. I'm running WinXP 32bit with sp3. I have the 182.50 drivers from nvidia. I have directx 9.0c installed.
I also have 2 pci video cards running, voodoo2 and a voodoo4.
I have reinstalled both directx and the nvidia drivers, I have run dxdiag and both direct3d and directdraw all pass the tests.
I've searched this and many other forums and have come up empty.
I feel like I've been banging my head against the wall trying to get past this error. Any help would be greatly appreciated
