re: Question about 'What to do about a C++ Runtime error Monday, December 12, 2005 at 8:49 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by fisherman (1 messages posted) There are many different reasons one might get this error. For starters, it seems that if you get an error as the program is loading, it's definitely a different problem than if the video quality degrades and/or the program crashes after several minutes. For me, I got this error trying to play Neverwinter Nights after I added a second monitor to my system. I found out that OpenGL freaks out when you have more than one display, so my quick fix was to disable my second monitor and re-enable it after the game starts. Still trying to find a more convenient solution, though... If you're having this error and aren't sure what to do, it makes sense to try the less invasive solutions first before trying something drastic like replacing hardware.
