  1. Schrullenhaft, I did look at the link that you provided above and one of the methods suggested there did indeed work for me! More precisely, "I had similar issue but I had to change value to EmulationOnly=0 under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\DirectDraw on Win 7 machine." Now I can run CMAK and CMBB in 1280 x 1024 resolution. Great! Thanks for the help and suggestions!
  2. Thanks for your tips.. RedWolf, I ran Dxdiag; On the 32-bit version it shows for that display DirectDraw Accelaration: Disabled Direct3D Acceleration: Partially AGP Texture Acceleration: Not Available If I run the 64-bit DXdiag, then however I get all three above as "Enabled". Not sure how I can test other 3D 32-bit stuff? I do not have an issue with other games so far... is there a way to get in the dxdiag 32-bit also all three items to "Enabled"? Schrullenhaft, I run Directx 9.0c update, but it did not help... When putting the display to 1280 x 1024 it stretches out the image, but I can see it fine. CMBB and CMAK directly and fairly quickly offer me only 640 x 480 resolutions. And yes, I run these games as an administrator. From the two displays there is indeed one setup as primary display. When I only used one display, the other was indeed disconnected from the PC.
  3. I normally run 1680 x 1050 (which i sthe recommended setting). However, I also tried to run the game after setting the resolution to 800 x 600. Even in this case, the resolution selection screen from the game only offers me 640 x480 resolutions. When getting to the end of the selection process, I get a message that DirectX could not initialize the 3D settings. The "c00005" error message I get when I accept one of the 640 x 480 resolutions (which I guess is kind of normal given that these games need at least 800 x 600). The only display management software running (as far as I know) is Nvidia control panel Version 6.9.850.0. Yes, I have tried a profile for CMAK in the nvidia 3D settings set up, though I'm not sure that the settings are the best ones...
  4. No, it does not work at 640 x 480. That is when I get the error message ("unhandled exception c000005")
  5. Thanks for the replies... I tried using only one display, but no luck... I also re-installed (fresh installation) the latest nvidia drivers (310.90) but no luck either. I still only keep the options of playing the game at resolutions lower than 800x600, in fact only 640 x 480 is offered to me. Any other suggestions?
  6. I recently got a new PC (Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, nVidia GeForce GTX 660 Ti on 2 displays...), but I'm unable to play CMAK, nor CMBB... I tried the following: 1) Running the versions pre-1.4 patch on my machine on the GeForce GTX; 2) Running the same versions on my machine on the Intel HD Graphics (on the ASUS MB) where I disabled the nvidia GTX 3) Doing above on only one display (by de-connecting the other display) 4) Trying to run the 1.4 Demo versions for both games from Battlefront's site (because I thought that maybe the Vista bug was at work...) but nothing works... Sometimes I get an error message ("unhandled exception c0000005"), but in most cases, when cycling through the resolutions, I only get to choose 640X480 (or something... at least not the minimal required 800x600). I have the idea that the games are not capable of finding my graphics card.... Any suggestions?
  7. Thanks for the tips, but it still does not work! Even by launching the game from my desktop, it asks for the CD. By the way, launching the game from the setup screen, never worked; I have always played the game from my desktop shortcut. To make things very clear: it is a regular CD, not an illegal copy, and it just worked fine under 1.02.
  8. OK, I re-installed the game from scratch. Still the same problem: it runs fine under 1.02, but cannot locate the CD under 1.03. Did anybody got the CDV version running under 1.03? Thanks for any suggestions...
  9. I seem to have some problems with the 1.03 patch. I downloaded the CDV patch and installed it without any problems (at least that is the message I got from the installation procedure). But when I try to start the game, it cannot locate the CD and keeps telling me to insert the CD (which is there!!) However, under the 1.02 CDV patch, I had no problems whatsoever; the game always located my CD... Any suggestions, please?
