[1.0.0] Crash when starting the game with a DirectX Error

First, I start up my Steam application, next I select Factorio under my games list, and then I select the play button to start up Factorio. But when I started it up today, I started getting a DirectX Error, stating "Swap Buffers failed." The other thing that the error states is "IDXGISwapChain::Present error: E_OUTOFMEMORY (0x8007000e)". When I read the log file I don't understand how I am out of memory, when my computer's "My PC Folder" shows that I still have over half of my computer's storage available. What do you believe I should do? Should I see if there is an update for DirectX11? Thanks

Restart your system.

Out of memory means you don't have any more free RAM. Hard disk storage is different and independent from that.
