GAME VIDEO PROBLEMS

by b_pope . Updated 24 years, 8 months ago

Unable to get DRIVER-you are the wheelman to play.Game installed fine ,but when I try to run ,splash screens come up & after last one, screen goes black for a couple of seconds,then game stops & I’m back at my desktop.Had the demo it ran fine,now using store bought CD.Already been the driver route ,using all the latest for video,sound & monitor drivers. DirectX8 installed.Even saved text from directX & sent to support at INFOGRAMES all they said was get latest drivers,didn’t solve the problem.system ;WinME ,PIII 800 ,512megs sdram ,Voodoo3 ,Soundblaster live ,Asus CUV4X with bios version 1009.
Also tried all display resolutions possible ,some with hardware acceleration.Shut down all running programs & active desktop still won’t work. Just goes through splash screen then shuts off back to desktop.
Other games work fine ,DUNE ,UNREAL ,HALF LIFE.
Don’t want to reformat hard drive at this time ,so any other answers only please.
