Begin by reading the following section of This Guide.

I just quote the preliminaries. Scroll down the page for information of detecting your hardware and locating the proper drivers.

[3.0.0] MapleStory

[3.1.0] MapleStory Errors

[3.1.1] "Failed in finding proper screen mode for Gr2D"
This section would be helpful to you if:

--> you have reinstalled Windows recently on your computer;
--> you have never played MS on your computer before;
--> you are trying to run MS in a virtual machine (jump to [3.1.1.6] now);

This section does not apply to you if:

--> MS worked on your computer before but you have not reinstalled Windows between now and the previous time it worked;
--> MS worked on your computer before but due to a patch or a GameGuard update, it no longer works;

If the last two applies to you, I suggest you do some universal fixes right now: reboot, reinstall the client, redownload and reinstall the client, system restore to an earlier point where it does work, and/or email Wizet (but make sure you mention that MS worked previous to a patch or whatever event that made it not work). It also wouldn't hurt to try these sections, but you will have a lesser chance of getting it to work compared to the people these sections are written for.

What is under Display? And System Model?

display:<br/>
none detected <br/>


system model:<br/>
GATEWAY T5212 100<br/>
System Serial Number: GRD6810002789<br/>
Enclosure Type: Desktop<br/>

Here is Gateway's support site:

http://support.gateway.com/support/drivers/dlcenter.asp

If this is a new computer then the graphics drivers were never installed or else the integrated graphics are not being recognized.

Basically you need to ID your graphics device and load its drivers.

If it is only an on-board chip it probably cannot play MS or any high end games. You would need to add a Graphics Card.

Do you know the exact Gateway model and number etc.?

model:<br/>
EMACHINES T5212<br/>

S/NO.:<br/>
GRD68 100 02789<br/>

That computer has an available PCI_E x16 slot for a graphics card.

This is what you would need in order to play MapleStory or any other 3D games.

The on-board graphics that was provided with this system will not be able to do that.
