Also to solve the monitor problem you might want to try playing in windowed mode: Running Rock Raiders in Windowed Mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because Lrr uses DirectX 11. See http://answers.yahoo...22134018AA8JgZC and/or http://forums.whatth...showtopic=66724. Google is your friend too.

ninja kiwi 1324 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 direct x 11 is installed, my drivers are up to date, direct3D acceleration is enabled but directdraw acceleration and agp texture acceleration is not available don't know if they have any thing to do with it. when i run it in comparability mode it doesn't say the error but the game crashes it shows the small loading screen before it actually starts the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenyx Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Try adding d3drm.dll to the game's root directory. You can find it here. If you've already added that, you may need to reinstall the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 direct x 11 is installed He was using sarcasm (I think, because DirectX is only for new generation games on Windows Vista/7). LegoRR uses DirectX 6, and needs a special DLL. Read 40KEndraiders post above to get the download link for the file you're missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
