    Help me please! :-(

    in Combat Mission - Tech Support

    Posted

    Hi all.

    Im new here, so please forgive me if i ask some dumb questions, but i really need help now:

    I like to play Beyond Overlord with a friend over TCP/IP last weeks. Now that we played all missions (without any problems), each of us buyed Barbarossa to Berlin (german version, already patched to 1.03).

    Yesterday i opened a game (as always), we started mission Boriska Trainstation (or something like that...). I choosed allied troops.

    To this point, everything was ok.

    Now i wanted to place my units, do it with the T43s and then i clicked on the truck with the officer - *PLING* - CM crashed with an unhandled exception, fault in "ddraw.dll".

    Game only crashes when i click on this specific truck!!!

    Reverse control: My friend choosed allied, he can click that truck without problems.

    Now i found the sticky thread with this prob, seems to be a DirectX-problem.

    Ok i used 3 (!) different DX9-uninstaller and nearly got crazy...after hours of trying i got DX 8.1 installed, then DX 9.0b..but never again 9.0c, because Setup aborts the installation, telling me its already installed (definitely wrong!!)

    So this morning i reinstalled my whole WinXP pro with all drivers, etc.

    Then i reinstalled, Barbarossa to Berlin, choosed this Trainstation Mission, clicked on that truck and - *PLING* - game crashes and is dead.

    My System:

    Pentium 4, 3 Ghz

    Asus P4P800 with i865Pe Chipset (newest Drivers)

    Sapphire Radeon 9800 Pro (Catalyst 4.12, no AA/no AF)

    1024MB TwinMos DDR400, dual channeled

    WinXP Pro

    Sound Blaster Audigy

    Can anybody pleaaaase help me to get the game running, i really would like to play that... :(

    Any ideas?
