Failed Creating the Direct3D device (D3D)
|
When I started my game after trying this fix it just showed a black window, the music and rain sounds were playing, so I'd call that a partial success. At least my eyes aren't bleeding.

there is a dxsetup.exe inside path of exile installed folder
....:\Program Files\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\Redist run dxsetup.exe |

Hey i had this problem and none of the ideas in here worked for me.
But through debugging the crash in visual studio i found out that what was causing the crash for me was the GeDoSatO application. So if you're running that take path of exile of the white list. |

" Doesnt seem to work for me: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1306591 I deleted that file and I'm still having the pathofexile.exe stopped working while loading the game. |

It worked for me after having initially had to force reboot my computer which caused Path of Exile to not start up anymore. I think my PC just needed a restart after that failed reboot. But maybe the rest also helped.
Symptoms: - Game window did not show up - Everything black when alt-tabbed to - Music and rain playing - Ctrl+Alt+Def, then Cancel showed "Failed Creating the Direct3D Device" What I did: - Deleted Production_Config.ini in "<MyDocuments>\MyGames\Path of Exile\" - Tested, didn't work, but sound and window size were reset to default - Executed dxsetup.exe in "<Gamefolder>\Redist\" - Tested, didn't work - Restarted computer because duh - Worked My advice to everybody is to restart the computer before seeing into fixing any issues. It sounds so basic but it is always something I forget about as I keep my rig running forever, only sending it to standby. |
