Hi,

0x8876086C indicates that the Direct3D system doesn't support a feature needed for the game.

1) Download and install the latest video card drivers directly from the ATI/nVidia website.

2) Check that the Windows video mode is 24-bit or 32-bit color.

3) If running XP, download and install the DirectX9c update.

Hi,

Try running dxdiag (C:\Windows\System32\dxdiag.exe)

Check the DirectX Version on the System tab and check the DirectX Features section on the Display tab.
