Unable to create D3D device(1)Category: Technical SupportAugust-23-2013 4:24 AM PDT (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Hi,

I'm having issues launching the game. In the beginning of the launch process I get a gray screen and a pop up window with a graphics error. It tells be that the program was unable to create the D3D device and that I have to click "retry". However, after clicking retry, the same error message appears again and again. It's strange as earlier in the week I had no issues launching the game. Wow and SC2 launch without any issues.

This is a new laptop (XPS14). I do use a docking device for a second monitor, etc.

Any clue what could cause this error?

Many thanks

Hello Petalpusher,

Try testing the game in windowed mode (full screen) to see if the issue persists.
