I can't get mame 0.107 to work with direct3d

OK, here's the story, I downloaded the new mame source and compiled it, no problems.

 

I have a newish computer (got it last christmas) running XP.

 

Video card is a Radeion X850 Series (can have 2 monitors plugged in although I only use one), and the display properties show Direct3d as being there.

 

Go to command prompt, enter >mame anygame

 

It says:

 

Proposed video mode not supported on device \\.\DISPLAY1

Unable to initialize Direct3D.

osd_init failed

 

and then throws me back to the desktop.

 

I tried ddraw and gdi, and these work fine. It's just d3d that is troublesome.

 

I ran dxdiag and all tests were passed.

 

Guess it's a computer problem, what do you suggest?
