lots of Directx9 crashes

[Rainmare]

<p>I'm getting an onslaught of directx9 crashes. not really any of the out of memory type, but a lot of them about it not being able to find things or the like. this one here though doesn't even let me load the game:</p><p><verify> G:liveeq2frameworkcoredirectx9renderdevice.cpp(198 3): failed to create D3D device for NVIDIA Geforce GTX 550 Ti. 00b22802 5c657669</p><p>any idea what causes that one? or why Directx9 seems to be having a ton of issues with rendering things? I'm not getting the out of memory errors, just errors like it can't find frameworks and such. I can't remember them off the top of my head.</p><p>I've updated all my Nvidia drivers, I've reinstalled Directx9...I dunno what might be causing this though.</p>
