Sorry, that was the method I posted, I happened to paste the wrong function
name; this is the entire function with line 852 marked:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
void tDirectDrawScreen::setUpWindowedSurfaces()
{
DDSURFACEDESC ddsd;
memset(&ddsd,0,sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC));
ddsd.dwSize = sizeof(DDSURFACEDESC);
//Set up the caps for the primary
ddsd.dwFlags = DDSD_CAPS;
ddsd.ddsCaps.dwCaps = DDSCAPS_PRIMARYSURFACE;
//Finally create the primary surface (line 852)
HRESULT hr = mp_directDraw->CreateSurface(&ddsd,&mp_primarySurface,NULL);
handleErrors(hr,"Failed to create windowed primary surface.");
//Calculate and preserve current screen size
setScreenSize();
//Calculate and store current screen position
setScreenPosition();
//Create a "backbuffer" surface exactly the same size as primary
createBackBuffer();
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the ddraw trace looks like this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not supplying any procedure to DDraw; could it be that some linking
problem has caused EnumDisplayModes to be called instead of CreateSurface?
That's what the backtrace implies. I've tried a rebuild of the relevant
source files just in case but the same thing happens.
If it helps, this is the function that creates the mp_directDraw variable,
called before setUpWindowedSurfaces:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
void tDirectDrawScreen::createDirectDrawObject()
{
HRESULT hr = DirectDrawCreate(0,&mp_directDraw,NULL);
handleErrors(hr,"Failed to create Direct Draw Object.");
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
