Author Topic: No luck with starting AHII (Read 303 times)

I have just installed AHII for the first time.
I have a 1.73GHZ system with 512M, a Nvidia GeForce2 with 32M.

When I start the game it gives me the initial vid setup. I have tried all the way down to 800x600.
I get the white screen for a few seconds.. then back to my desktop. No messages... no nuttin.

I have updated the video drivers and installed directX 9.

Any clues??

I would really like to play this game.

Thanks in advance.

Could be your video card won't work with it.

Have you tried deleting the video7.cfg file from the AH settings folder, and then trying to run the game again?

There could be other reasons. For instance, if you updated the video drivers without removing the old drivers, it could cause this as well.

Email me a copy of the DXDIAG output and I will be able to tell for sure. See the bottom of the "Hints and Tips" post for instructions on how to do this.

Thanks for he replies.

Estes: Yes, I have deleted the video.cfg file and tried to reset all the way down to 800x600. I am starting to wonder if the video card may not work with it too.

Skuzzy: I have sent you my DXDiag.txt file.

Thanks again.
