Or the game actually crashes. Have you worked with Crystal Tools before? Then you don't know how it functions with direct X.

You don't have to work with the source of something to see what the problem is. The error is that it can't detect direct X devices.
Its a textbook example of what happens when you get a Lost Device in Direct X 9. There are only so many API calls that can be made since its Direct X based so its pretty clear that the error stems from this.

The fix should be fairly trivial, instead of throwing the error when you loose the device, call the proper reset operations when the device is restored and reload the data back into memory then continue on your merry way.
