Default Re: Questions? Need help? Look here

This is my experience with the demo so far (by the way I bought the full game it behave the same).
I try to play the game on my AMD (=2000Ghz pentium), 512 ram and and a GeForce256 (yes a little dated) video card, and a Sound bLaster card. I also have Windows XP and Windows 98 (dual boot on the same system).
The first time that I try to play on WinXP it crashed, something with the video I thought. So I try it on Win98 and work with no problems....
Went back to WinXP but this time I changed the resolution on my system to 1024x768 (my normal default is 800x600)before I try the game, and it is working fine now.
It seems that the trick was to switch the resolution on my system before I played the game.

My brother on the other hand has a pentium 850 mhz (slow by today standards but well up there with the game requirements), 512ram , a Geforce2(beter than mine), and a SoundBLaster live. He also has dual boot WinXP and Win98. He played the game on Win98 and had no problems. On WinXP he has a problem with the mouse, very slow, and the keyboard commands also...we have to work on that...but at least he can play on Win98 with no problems. Will have to go and chase drivers again, all the drivers were the latest 3 months ago.

I hope that my comments are helpfull.
