    Hello, I saw other threads about this, but couldn't find a proper answer. Whenever I open MapleRoyals client, a box with that message as stated in the title of this thread pops up. I have Windows 7. I tried to run the program in compatibility mode for all the Windows OS, same message, always. When I click Setup in MapleRoyals folder, I can see the test message clearly. I don't exactly understand how this DirectX works, I downloaded Direct X 11, but I have no clue how to make it work, I am kind of a rookie in IT. I will kindly appreciate it if you can help me in any way. If you need some further information about my computer, don't hesitate to ask me. I kindly ask you to help me :-/.

    Try changing compatibility.
    Right click the client > properties > compatibility tab > choose run in compatibility for > select windows 98/Windows ME
    The client is the mapleroyals.exe

    Try changing your screen resolution.
    What type of screen is he using to play? a TV, monitor?
    Is it connected through HDMI, VGA etc..?

    Since it's a laptop the screen connected thing doesn't apply.

    Try removing/lowering hardware acceleration.

    HP 64-bit OS, Windows 7 Professional, Windows still updating, will try after it's done and share my experience.
    Edit: Oh and I have Direct X 11
    Edit 2: Windows update didn't fix this. Also I think I updated all the drivers too, but still same message :-/, let's not give up :p

    I'm getting this too after having formatted my computer and installing windows 10. Did you by chance manually install MapleRoyals, or did you use the Setup Installer?

    Edit: Running in Windows XP Service Pack 2 compatibility mode made it work for me.

    I used setup installer for it, gongrats for making it work for you. I tried all the windows modes, sadly none of them worked for me. Maybe I should uninstall MapleRoyals and download it again manually.

    I used to have windows 8 - until I got tired of it and installed windows 7, and I had this problem.
    My only solution as far as I can remember was to just choose one of the compatibility modes, then try starting mapleroyals like... 5-10 times and eventually it worked(It mostly worked on windows vista service pack 2 and windows xp service pack 3).

    Another way was to switch between the modes until it suddenly worked after some attempts.

    My computer broke down, I took it to my cousin, he fixed it with couple days and said I had some kind of major virus in my computer. Now when it's fixed I have no such problem anymore. Everything runs perfectly. Thank you everyone who put time into this and tried to find a solution with me.
