Well I recently bought the collectors edition of battlefield 1942 which has all the versions of the game including Vietnam. The installation was successful and I thought everything was ok but when I went to start it up the thing just crashed to the desktop after 5 seconds approximately. I have been looking around online and I have seen that my Via chipset MoBo could be the issue but I have the latest drivers for that like they suggest and for my Vid card there are no better drivers than the 8.4 that I have. I have turned the refresh rate thing to 1 so that it exceeds the 60hz limit and I have uninstalled and re-installed the game to see if that was the issue. I have also rolled back my drivers for both the MoBo and Vid card which failed horribly as well.
Right now I am lost for words and do not know what is the matter at all. All the games in the collectors edition crash to the desktop as well and not just the regular game. I can't think of anything and I was so ****** when I had to go to bed last night after failing to correct the problem =___= any help is appreciated.

Thanks to matt who tried to help but I eventually found the issue after a few days. It turns out my vid card drivers were not outputting directX like I thought they were. I found out the issue when I was using microsoft virtual earth and it said that my drivers weren't working with directx when I attempted to go to 3D mode. I then tried EVERY driver I could but the only ones that would work were the ones with the CD I got(8.4). It turns out that the other ones wouldn't recognize my hardware because they didn't get updated for my AGP card. So I searched for a way to get them to work and I found this on a forum
HD 2600 PRO AGP - driver problems - Phoronix Forums It was a bit confusing at first but when executed properly it solved EVERY problem and I was able to run the directx diagnosis tests with no problems when I installed 8.3 ATI drivers(finally!). I hate ATI for making me go through all this bull **** but now I'm happy ^_^. Someone REALLY needs to post that method on these forums though because this issue had been going on for the months that I installed this vid card and JUST NOW I fixed it >_<. Thanks again and you can now mark this as resolved I believe. |
