That's what I was afraid of. I'm afraid your error "Can't create direct draw surface" may well be caused by insuficient memory on your graphics card.
You could try using BSPlayer 1.37 with FFDShow. (Please read this post when going back from v2.x to v1.x player.)

[If 1.37 version is no solution then I'm sure that version 0.86 is)
