Exception Errors in MFC Examples

In the MFC example "Viewer3d" an exception is thrown when calling the line:

myGraphicDevice = new Graphic3d_WNTGraphicDevice();

The code traps the execption and gives the a warning message upon execution. "Fatal Error During Graphic Initialisation"

I get the above message on all of the MFC examples that implement the class Graphic3d_WNTGraphicDevice with a similar call.

I have tried stepping through the code, the memory allocation seems to proceed correctly but the execption is thrown in the constructor for the class.

I can not debug this portion of the code (despite having the debug versions of the dlls, I get a message telling me that there is no debugging information available).

Can anybody suggest a solution? Or has anybody got Visual Studio Workspace and Project files for the libraries, so that I can compile them myself? (This would be a good download for those working on Microsoft platforms, as constuction of these can take a considerable time).

System Information: WindowsNT(Service Pack 4) Visual Studio(Service Pack 3) Cascase 3.0
