I get the "can't access surface for lock" message, and have tried almost everything.
I know CCMT is one of those games where you cannot get support, but I will try.

I've updated DirectX, and I have patched the game.

This is a very common problem with Close Combat. The simple fix is to disable your direct draw features.
1. Click START

2. RUN

3. Type: DXDIAG (press enter)

4. now click DISPLAY

5. Disable DIRECTDRAW ACCELERATION (refer to image below) It will ask you to confirm, press "OK"

Have you tried different screen resolutions?


At what point do you get the message?

Do you always get the message on all maps/screens?
