For some reason, I think that the Version of Direct X you need is Direct X 7.
Do you have that one???
I apologize, but will have to leave this one to the tech support guys onour site that know what they are talking about.
I shall continue to check in, and make sure you are being looked after.
If not, then I will kill somebody for you...

Illegal operation message? "IDMAIN caused invalid page fault in modeule " we need that second filename.
So far we know that IDMAIN caused the problem. Most-likely a bad installation of IWD. Try deleting and reinstalling then reboot and try again.
If that does not help, maybe there is another program interfereing somehow (depending on the other filename; but if it's Kernl32, you ogtta reinstall)

hope that helps

oh, and i use DX 7.0a, but i don't think that matters too much. (get that GPF message again, maybe it's conflicting with DX and you need to reinstall THAT?)
