Stinger 0 Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Try to reinstall it but first save your games. And if that doesn't fix it we'll need you to do the steps listed here http://www.ghostrecon.net/forums/index.php...t=ST&f=3&t=5357 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stinger 0 Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Try to open it with notepad. (I think thats right). And grab Ike Crash too. What was the last time this install worked? And did u install any mods that maybe linked to this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Specter 0 Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 Are you using directx9.0 or 9.0a, and which Nvidia drivers are you using? With that old video card, you will probably want to go back to directx8.1 and an older set of Nvidia drivers. Directx9.0 wasnt Windows 9x/ME friendly, and that video card is old enough that directx9x probably isnt its biggest fan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stinger 0 Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 (edited) For reference I have that TNT2Pro card and I use DX 9.0b...but it is on XP. But I wouldn't mix DX9 and a 9x series OS. Edited August 9, 2003 by Stinger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
