I have a technical problem that I need your help with please.

Game Version & Patch (incl. publisher):1.04a

OS & build/SP:Windows 98 SE (4.10, Build 2222)

Computer, CPU & speed:AMD Athlon 1.3 Ghz

RAM:256 MB

Free HDD space:15.7 GB

Video (brand, model, driver, memory):NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX/MX 400 4.14.10.7772

Sound (brand, model, driver):SIS 7018 1.19

DirectX Version:9.0c

Ok. So I bought CK the other day and haven't been able to play it once because the darn thing freezes at the menu. I've reinstalled it a few times with the same results and played around with display options. It loads fine but as soon as the menu pops up the audio will stop or freeze, making a really annoying sound and I might be able to move my mouse around for a sec before that locks up too. So I've updated all my drivers, did a defrag, and everything to no avail. I've also switched to 16 bit colors and all that in case that was a problem, same thing. I play EUII fine on my PC as well as a few other Paradox games, so I didn't expect a problem. So any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
 
I'm not really the technical expert here, but as a quick solution, try renaming "avi" folder to for example "aviold". I've heard the Bink player can sometimes cause problems.

Renaming it won't cause problems with the game, starting videos just won't show.
 
Well the first thing to try a see if we get an easy fix is to install the latest public beta patch.
 
Just installed the beta patch and the same thing, the game freezes. It always locks up differently, either I'll be able to move the mouse for a few seconds and then it'll lock up, or I'll just get to the menu and nothing, not even any sound, though usually the music will play and then it'll freeze up. It never crashes to the desktop however, so I have to reboot from there. I always shutdown all background programs, so no problem there.
 
Okay Let's make sure you saw and tried all my standard advice.
Also continue to do these things, for example if you reinstall the game, rename the AVI folder again, turn off Virus protection everytime you go to test the game ...

1) Rename the AVI folder to AVI_back
2) Set the color depth to 16BIT
3) Turn off everything in the background like E-mail/ICQ/Messenger, Virus protection and everything in the system tray beside the clock.
4) Update your Windows, update your Video card drivers and audio card drivers. Then repeat steps 1-3.

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.
 
Hope this is eveything:

So I've tried the 16bit and renamed the avi folder before from looking at older threads and no success, but I've done it again after a reinstall, and the same results.
 
Need the rest please.

Also what about shutting everything in the background down.
 
Oops sorry.

Good news! I got the game to run. At the menu this time I got a screen flicker instead of it freezing up. So I started a game and the flicker went away, but the gameplay was choppy and the mouse response sluggish. As soon as a message popped the game froze up again. So not great news, still the same problem, just at a different part of the game.
 
Have you experimented with setting the game to a lower resolution?
 
Spoke too soon. I got the game to play and changed the resolution like you asked and nothing, it just froze up again and I actually haven't been able to get back into the game, its freezing up at the menu again. I've been at this for almost a week now and am almost at the end of rope in regards to this game.
 
Turn down the acceleration of your video card one notch at a time and see what happens. You can do this in the Dxdiag program you used before.

Also: set the game res to be 1024x768 16 BIT color, set your desktop to the same.
 
So how do I change the game res? I haven't exactly been able to explore the menus much or the game for that matter. I tried turning down the acceleration and it helped (I had it down pretty low in the end) but it still freezes up after only a minute or two. Question, how long does it take for the game to start up, you know when the "Deus Vult" image is showing the the graphics, etc. are initializing. I know it varies from computer to computer, but it usually takes like 2 minutes on mine, long after the music has stopped playing. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but the first time I started the game up, it seemed like an awfully long time.
 
Actually, you cannot change the game's resolution. It's fixed to 1024 x 768. However, with your 256 MB of system RAM, you are treading dangerously close to the minimum specs needed. At the very least, your system needs special tweaking to make the most out of the RAM that's present. That will also take care (to some extend at least) of the choppyness of the mouse.

See here http://www.europa-universalis.com/forum/showthread.php?t=147392 for some usefull tips.

Especially disabling the terrain overlay bitmap should improve the situation.

CK can be played in a different resolution.
 
Only by using unsupported hacks. The game itself, all the patches and all of the recent public beta's are fixed to a single resolution.

Note the use of Unsupported hacks here. We cannot help you if you mod the game in any other way than officially through supported patches.

I don't use them myself, I was merely saying they exist.
 
Sorry for the misdirect with the resolution thing. I was helping a person with a simmilar problem in the Knights of honor forum, and got the two mixed up. :(
