Hi matt85033,

Halo could not correctly initialize the 2D part of DirectX (DirectDraw) to display the game. DirectX may be corrupted or video
Hardware acceleration may have to be increased. For more information, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

Microsoft recommendation: Follow the instructions in the following article.

games for Windows
