The old version of Yu-Gi-Oh can't be played online anymore, however, there is the possibility to play the game on Dueling Network website. Visit the website, register for an account and download the client (if necessary!) then you can play with the online users. From the information presented on the website, it seems the game is actively maintained and developed.
When I run this game it says "Initialization of Direct 3D Device failed. There is a problem with Display Adapter or its properties." I need help. What should I do?

There are three causes for this error:
The drivers for the graphics card are not installed properly, therefore a new installation is recommended.
The DirectX is not fully updated. Download the latest version of Version 9 and the game should start.
Your graphics card is not powerful enough to run the game because it lacks features needed by the game.
Some games offer you the possibility to advance by continuously playing and others impose you to pay a certain amount of money in order to get passed a level. This is something called paid-to-win scheme used by many developers of free to play games.
First, check if your computer meets the minimum system requirements to run the game:
Operating System: Windows XP;
Processor: Pentium 4 with 1.8GHz;
Video Card: DirectX® 9.0c Compatible with 128MB RAM;
RAM Memory: 1GB;
DirectX: DirectX 9;
HDD Space: 2 GB.>
If the requirements are fulfilled, update your video card drivers and download and install the latest version of DirectX. If none of these works, you will need to change your video card.
