Problem with Vista

Error in initrender ()

This error can be caused by several things:

Outdated DirectX installation

Download the most current DirectX installer from microsoft here:

Outdated Video Drivers

First and foremost, you need to know what kind of video card you have. From the start menu type dxdiag into the search box (Select Run and type dxdiag for Windows XP). Navigate to the display tab. You will see your video card name at the top left.

Visit your video card manufacturer's website and download the most recent display drivers for your video card. Laptop owners will usually need to download drivers from their laptop's manufacturer, as the drivers from the video card manufacturer will likely not install.

Also, if you experience this error immediately after reinstalling Windows the video driver may not even be installed. If the video card name appears as "Standard VGA", the proper drivers are not installed.
