[0.11.3] Failed to create display

[Uvigz]

If MPC-HC is running then you start factorio it fails and trows out "failed to create display!" message. If you do it other way around (that is, start factorio and then start MPC-HC) everything works fine.

Hello, you didn't specify your os and hardware, as it is probably related.

Sorry. My OS is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
Hardware is DELL inspiron N5110 Notebook.
It has Core i7 2670QM 2.2Ghz processor, GeForce GT525M VideoCard and 4GB DDR3 RAM.

I tried it as well, and I could start Factorio fine.

I guess that it is specific to your system.

I started to have the same problem once I updated to the latest version (0.11.13 (alpha)) of factorio.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Intel core i3 3,07Ghz
4gb ram
ATI AMD Radeon HD 6800
The window flickers, and when it gives up it shows Allegro (Failed to create display)
It's a shame, i was looking forward to playing this game again

EDIT: I should clarify that messing with MPC does't work.
EDIT2: No luck with the latest stable version either (0.10.12 (alpha)).
EDIT3?: After updating my windows and restarting the computer, the game seems to be working again, just putting this here so anyone who has this problem can fix it too (both stable and un-stable versions)

you guys probably don't have 2 of these 1.You might not have a graphic card (you probably do)
2.You might not have a display driver, for example Nvidia (I think this is your problem)
