I haven't played soldat for few weeks, and this message started to appear.

This message appears when I run Soldat.
What to do?

Edit: My video card is ATI Radeon IGP 345mb, and I can't find any updates.

That means that you don't have DirectX better than 8.1. Soldat needs 8.1. or better.

Hi
Sometimes I got the same problem running 2 instances of Soldat.exe. The second one conflicts with first one. I'm sure you are not running 2 soldat at the same time.
I agree with precious post, try to install the latest video drivers for your card and the latest DirectX (9c is the last version).
Did you format your computer recently? or maybe uninstalled some hardware?
Anyway, good luck fixing that problem.

Error initializing 3D hardware

It's a hardware compatibility error:
Make sure you have the latest DirectX drivers
Try running the game in window-mode
Change the Windows desktop colors from 32-bit to 16-bit
Try changing some Soldat Config settings (turn off Antialiasing, check 16-bit)
Install the latest or different video drivers
Try changing the windows desktop resolution and bit-rate
Try turning down or up the graphics hardware acceleration (My Computer/Properties/Performance/Graphics)
Try updating your motherboard drivers
If you have Windows NT/2000 install the latest service pack
