ourgreatcities Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hello, Recently I reinstalled GF to play it again. Before I was able to play it flawlessly on XP after some work arounds and such that I cannot remember now. The problem I had before, was that the game crashed right after the intro movie. It's doing it again, and I've completely forgotten how to fix it. The game works in windowed mode with the unofficial launcher but it's buggy and has stuttered sound. Besides that I don't want to play in windowed mode. I really wish I remembered how I fixed this last time, but I cannot. Also: I've tried copying all the files from the CD with no avail. The game is patched. Please help me out! I'm running: Windows XP Core2Duo 6600 Nvidia GeForce 8600GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Du Man Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 what's the launcher? ScumV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ourgreatcities Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 Launcher is the regular launcher that comes with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justlost Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'm running: Windows XP Core2Duo 6600 Nvidia GeForce 8600GT My game wouldn't run on my new computer with Nvidia 8300-something - the screen would dissolve into lines straight after the initial cutscene. It was fixed by turning off directdraw and direct3d acceleration, by going run -> dxdiag (and finding them on the tabs there). Might be worth a try if it could be your graphics which is spitting the dummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadYorick Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 You could probably reinstall it. Then install the launcher again with putting all the game files on the harddrive. It could probably work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proddo Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Try the solution here, it let me run the game when I upgraded my 6800GS to an 8800GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
