Cant start game

Still nothing. Have anything left in your big bag of tricks, or am I out of luck?

Ya, run a virus scan on your computer. You never know, it has fixed problems like this in the past for me because I had viruses galore on my pc.

I tried debugging in Visual Studio. It saids Float Invalid Operation :/

Reinstall, and try the game, if it works then apply the patch, if it does not work rename the AVI and music folders again.

If there is still a problem then try reducing the acceleration.

I'm probably way off track here, and if so sorry, but try renaming your tiles.bmp file in your map folder to something else so the game doesn't load it.

Let's try and fix the problem before we look for work arounds.

I just wanted to mention, I've had a similar problem, where the game just won't load. It acts like it's loading, but it goes to desktop, and whenever I click on the icon in the taskbar, it keeps going to the desktop. I've tried everything you've mentioned here, and there wasn't anything helpful or unusual, except that when I tried the DirectX "Direct3D Acceleration", the tests automatically cancel (it says I pressed a key, but I didn't press a key).

You said you "had" does that mean you no longer do?

 

[Asaris]

No, I still do.

Okay that is a different problem than the one we are dicussing in this thread.
The one we are curently discussig is a crash during graphics initialization.

Please start your own thread as per support forum rules and I will be happy to help solve your problem.
