Symptoms

You use a surface memory pointer to access the surface memory after the IDirectDrawSurface::Unlock method is called on a device that's running Windows Embedded Compact 7. When the available virtual memory is insufficient, the IDirectDrawSurface::Lock() method returns an access exception error. Additionally, if there's insufficient virtual memory for the user mode application, an expected error code such as (DDERR_OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY) is not returned to the application.
