Aquamark errors

Anyone seen this before?

If so any ideas how to fix it?

I have searched around and there are posts on general errors, but my system is a fresh install and it has no problems running any other games
Thanks in advance

Have you tried a fresh install of AquaMark?

I used to get this problem all the time, and could find very few details about it. There is a download available (can't find link sry, google) which is a replacement .dll and fixes the issue.

The file in question is direcpll.dll, and I've also heard rumours that you can replace it with a copy of the file from 3DMark 03/05/06 - not tried myself tho.

Hope that helps.

Emailed you a copy of the newer dll file, hopefully you should now be able to run AM properly

AM crashes as you gfx card is too new for it, it is afterall an old benchmark now though i have to say i still use it as it is so quick to run you can see the results of your tweaking in a couple of mins not like the 3dmark stuff which takes ages in comparison.
