I am having issues retrieving a swapchain and device from directx. further info is in the code
void GXDX::StartUp(HWND* mainWindow,int w, int h)
{
//width and height are members of GXDX
width = w; //contains the width
height = h; //contains the height
this->mainWindow = mainWindow; // Is a handle to the main window. it is usually something
//like : unusual -735313406
ID3D10Texture2D *backBufferSurface;
DXGI_SWAP_CHAIN_DESC swapChainDesc;
swapChainDesc.BufferCount = 2;
swapChainDesc.BufferDesc.Format = DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM;
swapChainDesc.BufferDesc.RefreshRate.Numerator = 60;
swapChainDesc.BufferDesc.RefreshRate.Denominator = 1;
swapChainDesc.BufferDesc.Width = width;
swapChainDesc.BufferDesc.Height = height;
swapChainDesc.SampleDesc.Count = 1;
swapChainDesc.SampleDesc.Quality = 0;
swapChainDesc.OutputWindow = *mainWindow;
swapChainDesc.Windowed = TRUE;
D3D10_DRIVER_TYPE driverType = D3D10_DRIVER_TYPE_HARDWARE;
HRESULT hr = D3D10CreateDeviceAndSwapChain(NULL,driverType,NULL,0,
D3D10_SDK_VERSION, &swapChainDesc,&swapChain,&dxDevice);
if(FAILED(hr))//Error is here
throw GXVideoException(L"Problems retrieving directX device");
}

[EDIT]
Prior to Goz response, I checked out further debug detail and this is what was recieved
DXGI Error: IDXGIFactory::CreateSwapChain: SwapEffect is unknown.
which I am guessing I did not add the swapeffect attributes. I will do that and check it out
