Hi Guys,

Ive had my pc for a while now but for the past week or two I get an error message when I boot up and the 'twanging' sound with it lol

The error message reads:-

=================================================================================
DPW Manager

Could not find any compatible Direct3D devices.
=================================================================================

I have googled the error message but have not found much that can help me so far.

I have the latest video drivers, I have checked the settings in the nVidia control panel which shows 3D is enabled etc...

Could anyone help me to get rid of this error message please?

PC Spec:-

nVidia GTX 680 4GB
Windows 7

Cheers!

Dersta :)

Have you tried a SFC scan

Have ya tried the new 600 series beta drivers from Nvidia?

Download CCCleaner and run it and clear all your comp crud.

I have tried all of your instructions but I still get the error message when I boot up :(

I will search the nVidia forums and see if I can find any help there.

Thanks for your advice and the links you provided for me :)
