What the!?!?! Weird error message...

[skidude]

Ok, this just started happening yesterday. When I go to play games, namely Call Of Duty 2 and Counter Strike Source, my game crashes on startup and gives me the following error message (it is the same thing for each game):

Direct3DDevice9:: Present failed: Driver internal error


I think this has something to do with my video card drivers, but why so suddenly? I haven't updated the drivers in a few weeks (but still using most current ones) and the games were working fine on monday... any idea what is causing this? Im gonna try getting Omega Drivers and see if that solves it...

Ok.... Omega Drivers didn't fix it... wtf... gonna try re-installing Direct X now.

EDIT- Re-installed DriectX... still does it...

Ok sorry for all this lol but I found the problem... something with the windowblinds skin I was using... ya I kno, weird... w/e i'll just have to cope with it. Quite a strange thing to cause that kind of problem though.
