When I try to run Tender Loving Care , I get an error box stating “Can lock primary DirectDraw surface” or “DirectDraw Initialization failed (88760078)”. Is there anything I can do?
Your video card driver is not DirectX 2 compatible. Try other compatible video card drivers on your system. See “How to change your video card driver ” under the “How to Change, Update and Adjust Video Drivers ” section. If this doesn’t work, you need updated drivers for your video card. Look to the end of this document for a list of specific video card problems and solutions as well as a list of video card and computer manufacturers. The latest drivers can often be downloaded from their web site. Lastly, if you are still experiencing problems, it may be due to the use of third-party TSR’s like screen savers or SciTech’s Display Doctor. See the Question/Answer below for an example of how to remove TSR’s of this nature.
