When I try to run DOSBox on Windows (using the Windows binaries), it crashes saying:
CONFIG:Loading settings from config file dosbox.conf
MIDI:Opened device:win32
Exit to error: Failed to create a rendering output

I tried reinstalling, changing settings, nothing worked. Couldn't find the problem in this forum, and the troubleshooting parts of the wiki and README seem to be really lacking too.

Try the other modes listed in dosbox.conf: surface,overlay,opengl,openglnb,ddraw

Make sure you're using the latest video card drivers and DirectX version available for your card and version of Windows.
