I've got Matrox Millenium G450, Win2000, DirectX 8.0, 1024x768x32. All
demos give me an Error message box.

It's actually possible. Take a look at EuCOM (there's a simple DirectX demo
included). Also, I've been working with wxWindows, which is a C++ dll
(that's not ready for release, yet, but it's getting there).

What does the message box say?

It says "Error". :)
It's called from here:
directe.ew:806 if not
c_func(de_init,{deHWND,de_display_mode[1],de_displa
directe.ew:807 if message_box("Error","Error",MB_OK) then

Oh, heh. Guess i was too lazy to add a meaningful message.

The only reason i can see for this error is that no D3D Device could be
created. I'm using initialization code from various DirectX 8 tutorials on
the web, so i find it very strange that it doesn't work for some people.

Mic,
-Works for me, windows professional, NVIDIA. Pretty cool. But
if you just started learning Direct X yesterday and today youve got
this already...Im jealous. Whatever your doing, keep it up.

Mic,
cant work with them in fullscreen(but you said that, right?)
Also, do you plan on wrapping entire direct 3d?

They should run in fullscreen if you pass DE_FULLSCREEN instead of
DE_WINDOWED to deMain(). Though you may have to change the resolution in the
programs to some standard resolution like 320x200, 320x240, 640x480, 800x600
etc.
