The "IExplore caused an invalid page fault in module DDRAW.DLL" error message.

This error message appears when you start the Internet Explorer or the dxdiag program, when testing Direct3D. This problem occurs in case you install the Directx 9.0 and use an incompatible driver or graphic card. I have experience with the SiS 6326 card. Updating the driver or changing the graphic card should solve the problem.
