Whats wrong when the game crash (or wont start) just after the intro? The computer specs is ok, so are the directx etc. On occasion it starts, but im getting rather frustrated over rebooting a zillion times/evening. Any clue anyone?
 
I would recommend posting this question in the Technical Support forum. They have lots of experience diagnocing the exact problems that you are having.

Well now that you have found the correct forum with Tracid's help.

Here is the first few pieces of advice to get us started.

Okay let's try some standard things.
1) Make sure you have the latest patch for the game.
2) Rename the AVI folder to AVI_back
3) Set the color depth to 16BIT
4) Turn off everything in the background like E-mail/ICQ/Messenger, Virus protection and everything in the system tray beside the clock.
5) Update your Windows, update your Video card drivers and audio card drivers. Then repeat steps 1-3.
 
Great. Happy gaming. ;)
 
I hate to bump such an old thread, but it appears I'm having the same problem. I've been able to run it after install, but after I restarted my computer it keeps crashing when I get to Loading Graphics. The same thing has happened with Victoria, as well. I've tried all 5 steps, but it still won't work.
 
Please run a DirectX Diagnostic:
Start menu –Run - then type Dxdiag, then select each tab across the top of the window, and run the tests on each tab. Then select “Save All Information” button in the lower right of the window. This will bring up a dialog box to allow you to select a name for the file where the information will be saved. You can save it right on the desktop as this will make it easy to find. Then copy the contents of that file from the start to the heading that says “DirectX components” then paste what you have copied into a post in this thread.

You did not run the tests I mentioned?

Also try setting the desk top to 1024x768.
 
Tried lowering resolution, still doesn't work.
 
What about the tests?
 
All tests were successful, though the bouncing white box test did run a little slow.
 
Try uninstalling then reinstalling, and patching to 1.2
 
I tried that with Victoria and it didn't work. I'll try with HoI2.

*edit*
Nope, nothing.

Try the latest video driver, Oct 12 IIRC.
 
I tried all the steps again, still nothing.
 
Rename the music folder.
 
Still nothing. Have anything left in your big bag of tricks, or am I out of luck?
