Did you completely remove/Uninstall the demo? Yeah i use CCleaner which is a great tool for tidying up the registry. Matt form tech-support got back to me and said that there is a huge chance of it being down to my new gpu. I'm at a loss now </font> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abneo3sierra Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I had never heard of a system being too good to run a game. Many many times the other way, but never before this way. This has given me some concern then as well, as i am getting ready(already ordered and enroute) to purchase a new graphics card. Does this mean that what I hoped would be a great 3-d experience will crash when I get the new card in here? ugh, you are worrying me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellmut Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 It's difficult to say, it all seems a bit hit and miss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treetop64 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Originally posted by Hellmut: Yes the game looks like it would be great if I could get it to run. The problem is that I’m running very modern hardware (not vista though) and when I installed the demo last night all the words were blank from within the game. I thought “Ok troubleshooting page Applied the relevant fixes………..no good Added 98, Me compat to the exe file no good. Put the game back to original state, minimized and then full screen………. Game crashes and no alt/ctrl/del or alt tab will exit. “Computer recovered from a serious error” was my welcome message on restart. ARGH!!!!!! I haven’t seen that for ages. Oh well back to the old drawing board then.. You've probably learned this already, but CM doesn't like anti-aliasing. Turn that off on your video card's menu, and you will be bale to see the text in-game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abneo3sierra Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Well, works great with my new vid card. Not really better other than a hair faster, than before. But a relief. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellmut Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Ah i see I have just installed an ATI HD3850pro which is a cracking card for eye candy gaming. However, it all seems a bit much for this game. This card is DX10.1 compat, and your card is certainly better suited to older games. Happy gaming then 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
