snex9x + Direct3D = Failed to initialize ... SOLVED

Hi, first sorry my english
I post another problem on this post,
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5771
but i end with this Direct3D error
Failed to initialize currently selected display output!
Try switching to a different output method in the display settings.
I solve using 3Danalize+"Emulate HW TnL", and then open snes9x, now snes9x+direct3d works perfect, and MUCH faster than OpenGL
I test in four machines:
Laptop Pentium M centrino 1200 + GMA915
Laptop Pentium M 800 + intel 8250
Desktop Athlon XP 1000 + SiS620
Desktop Pentium 3 866 + Riva TNT2
In all this machines, direct3d mode was much faster than OpenGL, but of course i need to 3Danalize+"Emulate HW TnL" or snes9x will not open with the failed error
I test 60 different games, PAL & NTSC, and i did not see any graphical error. Everything works perfect like in direct draw or opengl, but much much faster
In the Pentium M even i can use simple4x filter! in opengl are a little slow, and in directdraw impossible
I know is not a bug, but maybe is something easy to fix, and a lot of old videocards will work
Thanks!!
