i have windows xp home installed i just installed and installed nothing else afterward and still crashes at menu. Does Geneforge have compatavility isues with other programs? BTW i have also reinstalled, Geneforge 1 and 3 work just fine. Ill try to download again from another mirror to see if that works but just wondering if it has any problems with some sofware or hardware. Edit--- I still have the same problem here is the error that shoes up: Unhandled exeptio c0000005 At address: 0042195e [ Tuesday, June 14, 2005 08:49: Message edited by: ESR1 ] -------------------- ESR1 Posts: 3 | Registered: Tuesday, June 14 2005 07:00 |

That is the error that most Spiderweb games calls up when there's a problem with Graphics. Have you got the latest Nvidia Drivers (or whatever else you use)? If you don't : Get them, that will hopefully fix your problem. Also, I think there was another problem recently with the drips in the Menu section. It's not that old, you should be able to find the topic. If I can, I'll find it and post a link. EDIT: Here was the other Topic which contains a similar problem.

Did you check to make absolutely sure you had the latest drivers? -------------------- -ben4808 Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

That means checking the website for the manufacturer of your graphics card, by the way, not just the automated update service. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Did you try reinstalling DirectX? -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill. However well placed word, unlike a well placed sword, Can also have the power to heal. Posts: 2649 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |
