“failed to create D3D device” when play game of Left 4 Dead, may it
cause of graphic driver’s problem. This error occurs while ones double
click on the Left 4 Dead icon to start running. If you’re sure that

check the video setting.
This error’s issue, so far it was found in all Lenovo Thinkpad Series
of T61, T61p, and also R61 which it has Nvidia Quadro NVS 140m or
Nvidia Quadro FX 570M as built in video. In order to make Left 4 Dead
with Forceware 175.97 running on that Lenovo Thinkpad Series above,
here are the way you need to do:
Go to your L4D folder and open the subfolder called “left4dead”,
Open “cfg” folder, there you should see the text file called “videodefaults”,
Change “1″ to “0″ under “setting.fullscreen”, and save it.
Now you should able to play the game of Left 4 Dead with Forceware
175.97 on Lenovo laptop. By use the way above game will run in a
window mode. So if you want to play Left 4 Dead running in full screen
mode, you can simply go to the game option and changes video setting
to full screen mode.
