    Asus N61J - Problem running Just Cause 2

    On running Just Cause 2 I get this error:


    Fatal Direct X error!
    Code:3
    Result: 0x887A0002 DXGI_ERROR_NOT_FOUND

    The game will now exit. Try starting the game with /failsafe if the problem persist.

    I have 258.96 Drivers, and I am running the program using the Nvidia graphics card (not the integrated). Apparently this problem also existed for the Alienware M11 ( http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware-m11x/497000-just-cause-2-directx-error.html), but the fix that they found was simply to install the 258.96 Nvidia drivers, which I already have.

    Any ideas? Anyone else with this problem?
