Creating a RenderWindow... woah. [SOLVED]

So I ran my application countless times before. I haven't changed any code related to this part, and all of the sudden, every time I build and run:



---------------------------

An Ogre exception has occurred!

---------------------------

OGRE EXCEPTION(3:RenderingAPIException): Cannot create device! in D3D9Device::createD3D9Device at ..\..\..\ogre\RenderSystems\Direct3D9\src\OgreD3D9Device.cpp (line 707)

---------------------------

OK   

---------------------------

and it happens at this line:

OGREWin = mRoot.CreateRenderWindow("Main RenderWindow", (uint)this.Width, (uint)this.Height, false, misc);

Here's the whole block:

mRoot = new Root();

            mRoot.RenderSystem = mRoot.GetRenderSystemByName("Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem");

            // Create Render Window 

            if (mRoot != null)

            {

                try

                {

                    mRoot.Initialise(false, "Name");

                    NameValuePairList misc = new NameValuePairList();

                    misc["externalWindowHandle"] = this.Handle.ToString();

                    OGREWin = mRoot.CreateRenderWindow("Main RenderWindow", (uint)this.Width, (uint)this.Height, false, misc);

                }

                catch (System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException)

                {

                    if (OgreException.IsThrown)

                    {

                        MessageBox.Show(OgreException.LastException.FullDescription,

                                        "An Ogre exception has occurred!");

                        MainGui.root.Close();

                    }

                    else

                        throw;

                }

I have no idea.

Did you install the MogreSDK? (Because of depencies.)
If yes, does the demos work?

Did you try the Basic Mogre tutorials?
(They use the Mogre Wiki Tutorial Framework)
If yes, did the tutorial application run?

Related to start params:
Some hours ago I created a new wiki page:
