initdirectdraw failed?

Postby frogboy » Wed Jul 25, 2012 6:04 pm

So i've been playing AoS for about a half hour, and then I get the brilliant idea of changing my resolution. I open config.ini and change it to 1440 x 900, and now whenever I try to join a server an error comes up that says "initdirectdraw failed: 0x800040001". What should I do?

EDIT: I was using Google Chrome, though I switched to using Spadille and it still gives me this error. I've tried Windowed mode, but it just says "Client.exe has stopped working" in place of the initdirectdraw error.

Well, I tried a few resolutions and found that 1280x800 works quite nicely without giving the error. This can be locked now
