I get a "Failed to create a graphics device. Exiting." error message when I start the game. I used to be able to play the game fine. The last time a played was a few months ago so there has been at least one update since then. My video card drivers and Windows are up-to-date.

Please try a full clean re-install:
- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "delete local content" in Steam-CK2
- manually delete all files and folders left under Steam/CK2 AND Documents/Paradox/CK2
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- start the game with no mods active and test
IF that doesn't help: Please attach here a dxdiag.txt and your Documents/CK2/settings.txt. From your Documents/Paradox/CK2/logs/ directory, post system.log .
