After i installed the game and after copying the crack and substitute de exe file with the cracked one,and after i run the config to select the video options, when i try to run the game the game simply d.oes not run and a litlle window appears at the middle of the scrren with the following message: "Unable to create Direct3D device with current settings, Please run the configuration tool and checkthat video settings are valid." I have a Geforce 6800 GT with nvidia latest drivers, an Audigy 2 also with the latest drivers. I also did a serch at Google and saw that more people are having this problem, and can´t solve it... Any ideas??

Yeah Sounds like a directx problem. Or a gfx card problem... are you sure your drivers are up to date?

yeah I had this problems with prey - the trouble maker are the new Nvidia drivers 91.31 they some times don`t install right , it was a bit strange becoz when i installled 84.56 back prey and other games runned fine and when i installed 91.31 back again they will show this biggie , well the thing i did to make the new drivers work was to uninstall them with this progi http://www.majorgeeks.com/Driver_Cleaner_Professional_d3214.html and then restarted my comp two times , then installed the new nvidia and it finally worked , looks like they are some problems with the new nvidia uninstall procedures and they new control menu
