Could not initialize rasterizer API

I am receiving this message as soon as I launch Battle Realms. I was able to play this game before on Win 98, but now that I have XP I am unable to. Does anyone know of a way to fix this. I already have directx 9.0 installed, and tried playing both before I had 9.0 and after.

Hi CherryH,

It's good that you've installed DirectX 9. Updated drivers are also important.
Lets run a diagnostic of your system to see if we can pinpoint the problem.

In order to Create a dxdiag.txt file: Click Start / Run / type: DXDIAG
Click the "Test" buttons in the Display, Sound, Music & Network Tabs;
Afterwards click the "Save All Information..." button in the bottom row.

To post the DX diagnostic information, open the file in notepad, click Edit
/ Select All / Copy and then Paste the data into your post using Ctrl+V. If
you use Outlook Express Click Insert / File Attachment. I hope this helps!

There is no way that this question is relevant to Microsoft Word and should
not be posted to the microsoft.public.word.newusers NG.
