is it possible to have W:A either log a error in initializing direct draw or have it pop up a error message instead?

you can still minimize the screen and if you leave it you can see it flash when the nuke goes off and can hear the intro but i believe the button layout is screwed up in the frontend because you can't actually achieve anything aside from minimizing or listening to the music :P

Some graphics initialization error handling has been added since the last Beta; I don't know if it would apply to this case since graphics initialization failure usually resulted in an immediate crash.
