Trying to get into FFXI for the F2p weekend, keep getting the "direct3d failed to initialize" error...
Ideas?
Make sure your graphics card is installed properly.
there is a drop down box where you can pick/choose what expansion to install. in there is the option to install the direct X 3d
choose that and that only and click install
Yeah, don't do that.

I Think that's how I fixed it a while back....Worth a try anyway.
Not relevant to directx failed to initialize.
Generally not needed.
Meh, *** it. I'll just uninstall completely and give up.
When I get home later tonight I should be able to fix it, by chance is this a laptop with integrated and dedicated graphics?
