DirectDraw Error

I get a DirectDraw Error when I use any...

Emus!!
I really hope you know what I mean, and I guess it also happens with other programs.

Your emu is most likely using the same resources graal wants to use while drawing images and what ever program was started first will have access to the resources and graal will be denied; Solution: Dont run graal while you have emus runing around.

I remember testing that program and messing up my system, I guess it's just badly programmed / requires a lot of resources

You dont even know what Emulators I use oO And its not bad coded dude, its the best one for SNES out there, and only uses like 5-10 % of my resources.

Ah I guess we are speaking about different programs x-x Not sure why you need to run an emulator while running Graal? Also resources is more than just CPU time, it's also about memory, file locks, windows GDI resources etc.
