TOPIC: Game crashing at beginning
Game crashing at beginning 10 years, 11 months ago #1100
Hi Everyone!
I recently decided to get back into Warlords IV after my hard drive crashed and I lost all of my games. However, I am unable to get the game to start. It crashes right at the beginning and I have no idea why. I've attached the error that it is giving me. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm also not tech savvy so if you do help, baby steps are necessary. i29.photobucket.com/albums/c260/DarkLust...ords_zpsb99952a1.png |

Aska,
You didn't mention what version of War IV you are running. Is this the install from the CD or is this after patching up to 1.05 or is this the Direct-2-Drive version of the game? KGB |

Oh, sorry!
It's from the disc - I haven't downloaded any updates/patches for it. |

Aska,
Where did you install the game? As in what folder? It looks like you are running Vista/Win 7/Win 8. Those versions of the O/S don't like programs that write in the "Program Files" directory (the default install path for War4) unless you are an admin user. War4 writes it's save games in a local folder so I recommend you install in 'My Documents' instead. Another problem could be if the game can't find a sound card. Do you have one? Or a screen resolution in 4x3 format (800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1600x1200). Do you know what resolution you are running in? KGB |
