I just got a laptop from my father-in-law for free and I installed a second copy of OOTP to it.

When I try to run the game, a window called "CreateSurface: Backbuffer" pops up with the message "Out of Video Memory", then a second one called "InitApp" appears with the message "Error InitDirectDraw"

Does this mean I have a really crappy video card and need a new one?

I hope not
