Ja, das funktioniert bei mir problemlos.

Schade, scheint nicht mit Intel GMA Grafikadaptern zu funktion (Meldung: you videocard not supported)

[hathor]

Mit Intel GMA geht es auch.

Vielleicht ist der richtige Treiber nicht geladen.
Teste mal GPU-Z:

oder

Exceptions anstatt ShowMessage + Exit wäre besser.
Also z.B. so:

Delphi-Quellcode:

function GetLcdDevice(): HFILE;
begin
  Result := CreateFile(LCDDeviceFile, FILE_ANY_ACCESS, 0, nil, OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, 0);
  //check handle:
  if Result = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE then
    raise EFileError.Create('An error occurred opening the LCD device');
end;

Das gilt natürlich auch für alle anderen ShowMessage aufrufe.
