i have no clue what happened. i was able to play like half an hour ago, but now it says that tehre was an error in initializing my 3d hardware, and that i cant support directx 8, which is bullplop since i can run many programs that use DX8.0 (as well as 9 and i think 7)

what the hell is going on? me and i friend were going to play eachother later, but now i dont think i'll be able to because of this. this sucks. maybe i need to reinstall. i'll try that, but i doubt it will work

Have you tried restarting your PC? Sometimes, an application or game will use the DirectX drivers and not release them, which prevents other applications from accessing them.

Restart your PC, if that doesn't work, then try reinstalling DirectX.
