Illarion.org

Ok, here's the deal,
I click on Illarion.exe and 2 error messages pop up one says, "The Illarion.exe file is linked to a missing export DDRAW.dll:DirectDrawCreateEx"  and the other says, "Device attached to the system is not functioning"  I think this has to do with DirectX...I have DirectX7 right now.  If you can help please do so.  Thank you.

The error message says that one of the Direct-Draw-Libraries (DDraw.dll) is missing in your system or isn't in the directory where it is supposed to be.
Reinstalling DirectX 7 or later should solve the problem.
