Maybe it has something to do with DirectX or something, go to www.microsoft.comand download the latest DirectX 9.0b if you don't have that one yet. Also don't run AoM or another game if you are working with Gmax.
)------------------------------------( interactive 3D renderer initialization failed error
The Interactive 3D Renderer Initialization failed error occurs when the wrong video driver is selected prior to running gmax. )-----switching your video driver-----(
On your desktop, right click on the gmax icon. On the menu that appears, select properties.
On the shortcut tab, add a -h after the gmax.exe, ;like: C:\gmax\gmax.exe -h
Now when you start gmax, you will be prompted again to change your display driver. you may now select the correct driver. If you do not know which driver to select, we recommend HEIDI: Software Z Buffer.
After you have successfully changed your video driver and the program launches, remove the -h from the target line so that you will not be prompted for the video driver selection any more. )------------------------------------(
If you have anymore queastions go here. Some very helpfull stuff.
