- Running PR 1.3 for the first time got that "cleaning up resources" crash
- Run it in windows mode, I got the following error message (image attached)

Debug assertion failed!
Module:RendDX9
File: C:/dice/Projects/BF2Branches/Patch_1_50/Code/BF2/RendDX9/RendDX9Init.cpp
Line: 538
Text: Failed to create d3d device. Unknown cause. Invalid call
Current confile:

- Litoralis told me to install Directx 9c with this link (thank you!)
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down...ils.aspx?id=35

- MS DirectX updater says I have everything I need (but I trust Litoralis more than Bill Gates, so)

- Run Windows Update, run installer again, nothing changed

- Searched MS Download Center and found DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... px?id=8109

- Installed, tried PR, same issue

- Adjusted everything to Low, tried again, same issue

I'm not a tech savvy, so I'm running out of ideas, any pointers?

The hard truth: Will I be able to run PR on this computer?

If you got this far, thanks for reading.

Uh..

Display Memory: 256,00 MB

That's like 1/4th of a gig of VRAM.. I don't think so? I'd wait for the master himself..

Well, the Manual says 128MB minimum, 512MB recommended, but I really don't know if I'm interpreting that right. Thanks anyways

Any ideas how to check if I have the latest/required versions of .NET and C++? Thank you

download .net and see if it requires an update

Thx DC_K

I've reinstalled/repair install .NET 4.5.2 and C++ 2013
Windows update shows nothing to download
I've increased memory page file size from 4GB to 6GB (just guessing here)

Still doesn't work

I have no idea what else to do next...

are you still getting the same error? or is the game not starting?

Press Play, then black screen, then cleaning resources windows
Same error RendDX9 error, only viewable in windows mode

Get Directx 9c again and don't run Windows Update afterwards.

I had run that web updater about 20 times in the last week. It just says I have all the DX files there are. Still, I've reinstalled the DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down...s.aspx?id=8109
and tried again without windows updating, but it doesn't work
Also:
Updated to PR 1.3.1.0
Already have C++2013, but repaired-install C++2012update4 just in case (another wild guess of mine)

Same issue, same error message

I'm leaning to believe I have about two options right now
- Grab a torch and burn down my PC, then grab my burning PC and burn down microsoft
- Keep watching Blue's videos and never actually play PR

Will I have to reinstall windows or something to fix this issue?

Your PC requires a discrete GPU to run PR.

Thank you Litoralis for your answer (I had to google that to know what you were talking about). So you are saying I have no chance of running PR on this computer as it is. That's too bad. Back to youtube then...

Thanks again all of you guys for helping me giving it a try
