Please provide more information about what kind of Hardware (your computer) and Software (the operating system [e.g. Windows 7]) you are using.

The first question set aside, have you installed the drivers for your graphics card (correctly)?

If not, please do so.

AMD (ATI):

AMD (ATI) Graphics Cards - Drivers - support.amd.com

NVIDIA:

NVIDIA Graphics Cards - Drivers - www.nvidia.com

---

If the drivers were installed correctly, are they up-to-date?

Reference:

[B]AMD (ATI) Latest Driver Version:[/B] AMD Catalyst 12.8

[B]NVIDIA Latest Driver Version:[/B] GEFORCE R304 Driver 306.23

This error commonly occurs with only the following ATI graphics cards:

Radeon X300

Radeon X700

Radeon X800

Radeon 9###

Before updating your drivers, please visit Windows Update and make sure that you have all of the critical updates and the .NET framework installed.

If you get a Failed to create D3D device error and are using any of the above ATI Cards, please update your drivers to the latest version of Catalyst by visiting the ATI driver page.

If you use a Nvidia or any other type of video card, please visit the manufacturer’s website for the latest video card drivers.

If the crash persists, set the following launch option:

Go to Steam's Library.
Right-click on the affected game.
Go to Properties > General > Set launch options...
Type in -dxlevel 81.
Click OK.

Note: if you are attempting to play Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 2, or Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, you must set your launch option to -dxlevel 90 instead.

Try adding ‘-dxlevel 90’ to the end of your games executable path.
