Please make sure you have Directx 9.0 or higher installed. Also verify that your video card meets minimum requirements, and that you do not have hardware acceleration disabled in the Display control panel.
Help me please

Who knows it may solve it.

Open Steam and Right Click on Red Alert 3 game.
Then select Properties.
In General Tab, click on Set Launch Options.
In here, add the following command lines.

-win -xres 1024 -yres 768

Press OK, and close the window and try running the game.


Fingers crossed this will do it.


Amazing! Got it finally work with this. Thank you!

Thank you very much. You help me solved it. I want to link my GPD to a bigger screen via HDMI cable so that I can have fun playing online PVP game. But it kept telling me error.

By the way, in my situation, I just ran into windows mode and adjusted the resolution setting into 1024x800. Next time I just launched it fullscreened without any trouble.

Hope this can also help any other GPD user who wants to play RA3 on a normal size screen.
