Thanks for testing!
Now I at least know where it crashed, not necessarily why. It crashed because d3d->CreateDevice(...) failed. It might be because when you have voodo gfx gard, you have several gfx adapters (according to DirectX) and some doesn't work with windowed mode.
I have now updated the debug version so that it retries all possible combinations of arguments for CreateDevice(...) . One of them should hopefully work on your computer. Please test again.

PS. I attach the code that I use for creating the DirectX device in case some experts might have some clue

I think I just found out what might be the problem why some people can not start CCS64 V3.0 in Windowed-mode on non-WinXP systems.
