Hi, I just purchased Sim City Societies tonight. I've been waiting to get it for quite a while so I installed and and was extremely excited to play it, but then I got this issue...
A window came up entitled "Game Exception" and this is what it read:
Unhandled Exception: Unable to find a valid device.
Type: class TMill::Common::Exception
File: c:\sc5enginework\source\engine\dxdevice.cpp
Function: TMill::Engine::GetBestDeviceId
Line: 599
I meet the minimum system requirements for the game... so I don't know what's causing this problem. I'm running on WindowsXP with a Sony Vaio.
I'm not willing to buy a new graphics card, or anything hardware related because I'll be buying a new computer in August, an iMac, and I'm not dumping anymore money into this PC.
Thanks to anyone who can help solve my problem! If there's no solution, I'll probably just end up returning the game and that'd be disappointing for me.
