General protection fault!

History: ResetDevice <- UD3DRenderDevice::SetRes <- UWindowsViewport::Exec

Anyone now what that means? Thats the demo by the way. I just want to know how to fix in for when the full version arrives through my letterbox.

Hopefully its just the demo, but still any1 know why it does that? ...
I like the demo, lol.

Its something to do with your graphics card looking at the D3D message.

What card do you have? I think it requires at least 64mb doesn't it?
I know the required specs are for an absolutely ninja PC anyway.

And the liklihood is that if the demo doesn't work, neither will the full game. The code wasn't changed much from the demo.

Is it the first demo or the second one? I couldn'r run the first demo either, but they released a second, three level demo which seemed to have fixed the problems which plagued the original demo release.

It's an OK game i suppose, a bit too slow and boring for my taste though.

Splinter is f'ing amazing! I love it, why do people hate it??
My Graphics Card is a GeForce4 Ti4200 128mb DDR Pinnacle 8X AGP. Latest Drivers, etc.
My Pc is a Ninja and almost double all specs, it should run fine.
I will find out 2moz though wont I!

Because, contrary to popular belief, people like being told they're wrong. As someone who does little else, I am therefore gifted with the highest accolade the forums can offer.

Yet my ability to improve people's lives by 0.000001% (after reading my posts) was criminally overlooked. Anyway I'm actually a Cyberman and thus am glad I didn't get covered in Gold.

Splinter Cell has been fun so far, though some liberties are taken with the guard's visual capabilties. Even on Hard some of them look right at you hiding in minimal shadow, resplendant in a black kit with dagloo green glowy bits! That said it'd be boring if you kept getting rumbled for nowt. Also why the blooming chuff are all gamepads NOT supported? Eh? Why? Give me a reason lazy developers..

Human shields are fun though. Mmmmmm friendly fire.
