Failed to create a front buffer. Error 593?

[RdDrgnKrynn]

DevCreateSurface: Failed to create a front buffer.
Error: 593 C:\mpr\ddk\eng\esurface.c Oct 8 1999.
I am playing Falcon 4.0. I would finish a sortie or
crash. Instead of going back to the set-up screen,
Windows comes back on and displays this message. Game
error, or windows error? Both?

When you get game errors, the first place to look for solutions is on
the game's website. Look for patches, messageboards, search Google for
entries about your particular problem. When playing games, always be
sure that the programs and services running in the background are at a
minimum, even with a powerful system.

HTH,
