Question Need Help

Hi, I am having problems with Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance. Everytime i try to run the game it gives me this message:

Failed creating Direct3DDevice8 Object.

I've tried to solve the problem by messing with my graphical settings, like my resolution in the game, and turning the 32bit zbuffer on and off, but nothin changes. may b there is a problem with my drivers, i dont know and i have no idea what to do. it seems like a complicated problem and i would appreciate it if anyone could tell me how i solve this problem.

I have all of the reccomended system requirements. My system includes -

nvidia geforce mx440
256mb ram
1.8ghz intel pent. 4
DVD drive

Hay mate I have a solution I think The way I fixed my problem is to update my sound drivers download them uninstall your sound drivers reboot and install new drivers when asked. A simple reinstall without rebooting will not do the trick

Thanks
