Samurai Recon Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 (edited) When i start up the demo it appears to be ok at first, with the little G.R.A.W window appearing and the usual black screen before all the "Runs best on nVidia"-stuff appears. But it never goes beyond the little window and the black screen - it instead just quits back to the desktop. It just can't get beyond that point. I've tried to change the resolution in the ini-type files in the demo folder and i have also tried to start the game in windowed mode and re-installing it about 4 times - always with the same above result. What could be wrong?

Rocky Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 There is a bit of a black screen pause after the 5 or 6 opening splash screens, just before the menu opens. I have no clue what's going on there but it appears to be disagreeing with your system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Recon Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 It doesn't even start up the splash-screens as you call it, just straight to the desktop. I don't know what to do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panDE Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Can you tell if you are using PowerStrip ? I had the same problem with counter-strike: source while using that program . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Recon Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 What's powerstrip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panDE Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Well seems that you are not using it, hmm.. try to look at the configs in Ati control center, there is plenty of different options to choose from. I believe you will find out why it keeps crashing from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Recon Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) I sure hope i'll atleast be able to run the full game when it comes and that this is just a demo issue for me. Same thing happened with Act of War - the demo didn't run but the full game did. I sure hope this is the case... On another note - It seems that the people that are having the same problems as i am having, have some similarities in their set-ups: Creative soundcards OCZ memory modules DFi Lanparty Mobos Something for the devs to look into perhaps.

Samurai Recon Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 Solved my problem - updated my Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS soundcard drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
