When i try to run Teapot Wars from visual studio, an error message popped up "Unable to initialize Direct 3d device"
At first, i ran the game in VM Fusion 6 and thought that it could be a VM compatibility issue with the DirectX or Windows 8. Then I switched to a Sony Vaio laptop with Windows 7. The laptop is about 4 years old. The same error appeared.
The VS solution could compile without problems on both the laptop and VM environments. I am using VS2010 , Windows 7 and DirectX June 2010 as recommended on the forum.
Could I know what is the problem? Is it to do with the DirectX version?
