UndelphiX on XP

[Jonne]

So, I'm having all kind of troubles with using UndelphiX on WinXP.
I have directX 9.0 installed.

Before I havent got any problems with Win98+UndelphiX.

Any clues, is there some compatible problems with UndelphiX if I have XP or directX9.0. Hope you understand my average english

I'm using UnDelphiX on XP too with DX9. Never had a problem. the gfx card drivers for XP are often the reason for serious trouble..

I think my problem was display mode. First I had 24bit but when I swapped to 16bit, no more crashes occurs.

In Dxdraw component/option/doflip is by default false. Why?
I mean, what situations I should set it true?

What graphics card do you have? Many newer graphics card don't support 24 bit colour at all, since it's frankly a pain (I know my old Geforce2 MX did 16 and 32 bit colour, and my current Radeon does 16 and 32 bit colour as well).

DoFlip would, I'd assume, toggle page flipping (versus copying the back buffer onto the front buffer). You can't use page flipping in windowed mode, but you'd be able to use flipping if in full-screen. Flipping should be faster than the alternative, so I'd recommend setting it to true if possible (note that I've not used DelphiX before, so this advice is a guess based on my DirectDraw experience).
